George Washington (Rookie Biographies) Paperback – March 1, 2013

This book is exactly what I needed. I purchased it for a child who wants to learn more, but cannot read longer books.This book is filled with lots of amazing illustrations. The text is fairly simple, but detailed enough for the kids to learn.

I like these books. There is just the right amount of information. It doesn't get very indepth so my 7yr old is able to remember what we read about. A great way to learn about our history!

I bought this to use in my 6th grade reading classroom. It is excellent to use to teach reading skills such as main idea, author's purpose, or summarizing. I put it in a center and students have 10 minutes to use the book for an assignment. Since it is at a lower reading level, students have success in building skills to use in higher level texts.This book is a good addition to the grade 1-6 classroom library.
