Editorial Reviews

This series, written by Charlotte Guillain, introduces transitional level readers to favorite authors in a question and answer format that is fresh and interesting. Combining many photos of each author with events from his/her life, readers will find answers to questions such as "Where did the author grow up?", "What else does the author like to do?", and "Why is the author famous today?" Each title employs the same easy-to-read format with one or two sentences per page, written in a large, readable font. The books include a timeline of the author’s life and work, a section of additional titles, and a website for further reading. These books will be a good resource for beginning research. Glossary.
