This book was about how Anne Frank and she was Jewish and Nazi's wanted to kill all the Jewish. Her family went into hiding and they hid in her fathers work, in the annex (attic) but they were found and sent to a jail.
They weren't fed and everyone had to get their heads shaved even the girls. The only person that survived from her family was her father. He later on got remarried and had a step daughtern who wrote this book about her step sister.
One cool fact I learned is that Anne Frank has the same birthday as me, June 12th and that day is now Anne Frank Day.

Abraham Lincoln died from getting shot in the back of the head surprisingly because he took away slavery.

Title: Who Was Ferdinand Magellan? Author: Sydelle Kramer
I chose this book because I needed to read a Biography for the 40 Book Challenge. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars because of the wording and details. The book lacked ending details. So, I would add detail and excitement to the end. I compare this book to Who is Dr. Seuss. Both books tell about a famous man in history, but this book was not as interesting as Dr. Seuss.

After talking her father the king into searching for land, he set sail to explore the world.

She was always trying to set records. People nicknamed her Lady Lindy since she looked a lot like famous pilot Charles Lindburgh. She successfully flew across the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. In 1937 she got lost trying to find an island with her navigator Fred, she mysteriously disappeared.
I read this book because it was in my stocking on Christmas morning. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars because of all the fascinating details about Dr. Seuss.

He went to college because his dad wanted him to be a doctor, but he dropped out to be a writer. He met his wife at Oxford College. His wife proofread his books, but got sick and died at age 68. Then he married a close friend and she started reading over his books. Dr. Seuss died at age 89. After he died students at Oxford celebrated his life by reading his books for 24 hours straight.

Harriet had never tasted sugar, so while the lady wasn't looking Harriet tried some. The woman caught and grabbed her whip but Harriet was to fast. Harriet went and hid in a pig pen for a couple days but got hungry so went back to her real owner. This book was a very good book!! I give it 5 out of 5 stars!!

They weren't fed and everyone had to get their heads shaved even the girls. The only person that survived from her family was her father. He later on got remarried and had a step daughtern who wrote this book about her step sister.
One cool fact I learned is that Anne Frank has the same birthday as me, June 12th and that day is now Anne Frank Day.
I would give this book a 3 and a half stars out out of 5.
Who was Ben Franklin?
ReplyDeleteDennis Brindell Fradin
This book was about what Ben had made or discovered in his life. He was one of the first person to discover the United States of America. He had worked in his fathers work shop to help him out but Ben did not like it. When he got older he made a artificial arm that could grab thngs up high or things down on the ground. He made himself a pair of bifocal glasses that would help him read and see things that were far away that he could not see in veiw. I am going to give this book a rating 5 out of 5 because it was about his life and what he had invented by himself. I know he invented a lot more than this in his whole life.
Title:Abraham Lincoln
ReplyDeleteAuthor:Kenneth c. Davis
This book is about Abraham Lincoln and all of the questions you might have about him. Abraham Lincoln was smart and strong. They say Abraham Lincoln had notes in his hat and that these boys always tied a string on something and when Abraham Lincoln walked the hat fell and so did his notes the boys laugh and Abraham Lincoln too . Abraham Lincoln died from getting shot in the back of the head surprisingly because he took away slavery.

Title: Who is Baseball's Greatest Pitcher
ReplyDeleteAuthor: Jeff Kisseloff
This book is about the 33 greatest pitchers ever in major league baseball according to the author. In the book the author tells lots of facts about each pitcher. Some of the facts I would never know about and they were very interesting. Bob Gibson was one of the pitchers in this book. I found out from reading the book that he played basketball for the Harlem Globetrotters. This was one of the most interesting facts I learned. I would give this book 5 out of 5 stars because I love sports and baseball is my favorite sport.
Title: Ready, Aim, Fire!
ReplyDeleteThe Real Adventures of Annie Oakley
Author: Ellen Levine
I chose this book because I had heard some stories about professional gun shooter Annie Oakley and I wanted to know more. I rate this book a 5 out of a 5 stars because of the detail and life events. I learned about the first time Annie shot a gun when she was with her friend. She married Frank Butler who was also a professional shooter in the Buffalo Bill show and they traveled across the U.S. They were married almost fifty years and lived in Pinehurst, North Carolina for a while. I wish the author would have included exactly how Annie Oakley died.
This book is my favorite biography so far especially since she lived in my home state.

Title: Who Was Ferdinand Magellan?
ReplyDeleteAuthor: Sydelle Kramer
I chose this book because I needed to read a Biography for the 40 Book Challenge. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars because of the wording and details. The book lacked ending details. So, I would add detail and excitement to the end. I compare this book to Who is Dr. Seuss. Both books tell about a famous man in history, but this book was not as interesting as Dr. Seuss. Ferdinand was very poor. He fought in the army until he was injured in his knee. He returned home and married a Princess. After talking her father the king into searching for land, he set sail to explore the world.
Title: Who Was Amelia Earhart?
ReplyDeleteAuthor: Kate Boehm Jerome
I chose this book because I wanted to know more about Amelia Earhart, a famous woman. I rate this book 5 stars because of the detail,wording,and creativity. I compare this book to Dr.Seuss because they are both "Who Was" books and both biographies. Amelia Earhart was a famous pilot who flew airplanes and performed stunts. She was always trying to set records. People nicknamed her Lady Lindy since she looked a lot like famous pilot Charles Lindburgh. She successfully flew across the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. In 1937 she got lost trying to find an island with her navigator Fred, she mysteriously disappeared.
Title:Who Was Dr.Seuss? Author: Janet B. Pascal
ReplyDeleteI read this book because it was in my stocking on Christmas morning. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars because of all the fascinating details about Dr. Seuss. This book was similar to the books he wrote because it was creative and funny! It tells about him moving to a new town where all of the kids made fun of him and thought he was odd. He went to college because his dad wanted him to be a doctor, but he dropped out to be a writer. He met his wife at Oxford College. His wife proofread his books, but got sick and died at age 68. Then he married a close friend and she started reading over his books. Dr. Seuss died at age 89. After he died students at Oxford celebrated his life by reading his books for 24 hours straight.

The Diary of Anne Frank
ReplyDeleteWritten By: Anne Frank
This book is about the life and death of Anne Frank. She had to go into hiding with her family during the war because she was Jewish. Hitler did not like the Jewish people who lived in Germany so he made them go to camps where millions of Jewish people were killed. The family could not get out of Germany so they stayed up in a friends attic hiding from the Germans. You will have to read the book to find out how the Germans found the family. I liked the book but it was very sad. It is sad to think this really happened in our world.

Title: Who Was Harriet Tubman?
ReplyDeleteAuthor: Yona Zeldis Mcdonough
This book taught me a lot more than I knew about Harriet. I didn't know that Harriet's first husband, John Tubman, after she left him to be free, married another black woman, than died a few years later. The book told about what she did during freeing slaves on the underground railroad and how she did it!! Did you know when Harriet was about 6 years old she was hired out. She went to work for, not owned by, a woman who didn't want to be woken up by her baby at night,and had Harriet watch her. Harriet had never tasted sugar, so while the lady wasn't looking Harriet tried some. The woman caught and grabbed her whip but Harriet was to fast. Harriet went and hid in a pig pen for a couple days but got hungry so went back to her real owner. This book was a very good book!! I give it 5 out of 5 stars!!
Michael Jordan
ReplyDeleteMatt Christopher
This book is about Michael Jordan. It talks about his championships and stats during his NBA career. It says quotes like " Always turn a negative situation into a positive situation". And the book says stuff about his childhood. it also said he went to North Carolina University for college and he is one of the greatest basketball player in basketball history. And it said stuff like he was a Hall of Famer. I liked this book and I would have to give it a 4 out of 5 stars.

This book is a biography about Martin Luther King Jr. and all he has done for the United States. He made it equal for different races with the whites. He thought it was unfair that the blacks had to get up on the bus for the white people. He and Rosa Parks got arrested for not getting up for a white man. There were places where only white people could enter. Martin Luther King Jr. tried everything to make it equal for the rest of the people. People had servants to do the work for them. Martin thought this was rude. He truly wanted to make a difference in the United States.
