I liked this book because it gives a good summary about George Washington Carver. It starts off with him being born, and his parents buying a slave, who they took good care of. Then it talks about his invention of peanuts. At the end it talks about his death. This is one of my favorite series of books. I think you should definitely read this book if you're interested in George Washington Carver.

Today I am going to review the book, Who was Milton Hershey? by James Buckley, Jr. This book was published in 2013. This book tells the life story of Milton Hershey from his times on the farm to his creation of Hershey, Pennsylvania. You will learn all about this chocolate king. I enjoyed reading this book because of how much I learned that I never knew before. Also, it was about chocolate! The reading level of this book is about 3rd-5th grade. I would recommend this book for chocolate lovers and people who enjoy learning history.

I gave this book a 4 because Abraham Lincoln was my favorite president and he was one of the best in my opinion. The books talks about Abraham Lincoln's presidency, life , and struggles. He lived during the Civil War, and had to try to stop it. He had 4 kids one died at age 4, and he was very sad. He didn't let it stop him from doing good in life. Finally he fought in the war to serve his country.

i love this book and he is my favorite historical figure but it's too bad he died.(new copies are sold as who was nelson mandela)

i think this book will be very cool, because I have been reading these series! Those people who haven't read these series, I think you guys should definitely try this book! You will learn more about our American heritage!

Who was Daniel Boone? Was written by Sydelle Kramer and Illustrated by George Ulrich Does someone that live in the woods and uses natures resources to live on interest you? Daniel Boone was born on November 2, 1734 in Reading Pennsylvania. Daniels daughter Jemima was captured by the Shawnee Indians and was later rescued by Daniel. On July 14, 1776 3 teenage girls were captured by the Shawnee Indians while they were floating on canoes on the Kentucky river, one of which was Jemima, Daniels daughter. Daniel was in constant battle with the Indians for land. That was always a big struggle for Daniel and his wife Rebecca. At one point Daniel decided to work with the Indians they even gave him an Indian name of Sheltowee, or Big Turtle. I enjoyed this book because it dealt with conflicts in the 1700's and even now a days we still have these arguments. But it shows us a positive side of how to work through it.

We learned about him in history class!
