Science & Technology Series
Biographies are so valuable for students to read. Learning about a historical figures early life helps readers more fully understand what they learn about them later on. When it comes to scientists, background knowledge provides context for their science careers. What were they like as a student? Were there many failures before their successes? What were their habits and methods? What did others think of them during their lifetime? Were they married with children? A reader may find a connection that sparks something within them! Perhaps in reading about Da Vinci a student starts to regularly journal their ideas. These books flow well and are very readable. The text is interesting, and the graphics are varied and helpful. There are loads of photographs and illustrations in each volume. ~Sara
