      Gr 1-3-This aptly named set has a consistent, clean layout: spreads feature brief text on one page, with a full-color illustration opposite. Each subjects childhood through major accomplishments and later life are related in a concise narrative, ending with how the person is honored and remembered today. Martin Luther Kings and Abraham Lincolns assassinations are handled with age-appropriate text and illustrations that are somber, but not scary, and include no weapons or violence. Fun Facts at the end of each book include additional information; in Washington, for example, the cherry tree myth is dispelled. The texts are large and easy to read, and unfamiliar words, though not highlighted in the text, are explained in the short glossaries. Though the simple illustrations are rather pedestrian, the set will fit the bill for students who are reading independently.
