Our Eleanor

By: Candace Fleming

This is a biography of Eleanor Roosevelt's life.  It was chock full of clippings of newspaper articles and picture.  For people that like to see what they're reading about this would be perfect.  It was written in kind of slow way but the story makes up for it.-Norah 

Good Brother Bad Brother

By: James Cross Giblin

This is a story about Abe Lincoln's assassin's family. It's called GOOD BROTHER BAD BROTHER because  it focuses on two people the older brother and the younger brother that killed Abe Lincoln.  I thought it was super cool to read about Abe's assassin  in a unbiased way with the full story of his life instead of just reading about how he killed Abe in a biography of Abe's life.-Norah 

Epic Athletes: Alex Morgan

By: Dan Wetzel


Alex Morgan dreamed of being on the women's national team, but she never imagined that dream would come true. This is a great biography that helps young readers get more into reading. It is a great, good sized story about Alex Morgan that shows her triumphs and downfalls of her career. This book is great and I loved how it made me feel like I could do anything if I really tried hard to get there.-Delaney
