      Grades 1-3 The latest set in the History Makers Biographies series (6 new titles) adds an outstanding group of individuals to the fold, many of whom youngsters will recognize from TV and the news. Geared toward a primary-school audience, these simple introductions outline each person's childhood, education, career, and accomplishments, using short sentences that incorporate some challenging vocabulary and that are always accompanied by crisp, full-page photos. Following the main text, a time line reviews key dates from the person's life and a glossary thoroughly defines the book's bolded terms. A QR code sends young learners to age-appropriate, online resources, as well as a related video, craft, and downloadable activities. Kids will get a dose of good trouble in John Lewis, which highlights the congressman's activism against segregation and for the civil rights of Black Americans. Solid stepping-stones into nonfiction reading and research.
