History, told via the GREAT LIVES IN GRAPHICS books is immediately relatable and understandable in a powerful way. I would encourage anyone with kids ages 8-12 to pick this one up. Teach your kids about what happened so that we don't repeat it."<br> Instagram review, @picturebookplaydate https: //www.instagram.com/p/CKd1haTFy31/ "I absolutely love Anne Frank. I have read her diary more times than I can count... Her story has stayed with me and will forever... The Holocaust is hard to teach and not all children are ready to hear the horrors of war but it can be taught gently and sensitively through books and it is something I believe passionately our young people should know about so that they can play their part in sharing the story and ensuring such horrors never happen again. So that they can find inspiration in the story of a young girl who in spite of everything believed that all people were good and dreamed of a better world"<br> Instagram review, @home.read.play https: //www.instagram.com/p/CQfkNh4s-f7/ "School libraries need to stock up on this series because they really do deliver on making learning exciting."<br> Mid-West Book Review http: //www.midwestbookreview.com/cbw/jan_21.htm#Series "Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, all four volumes in this new 'Great Lives in Graphics' series for young readers are especially and unreservedly recommended for elementary school, middle school, and community library biography collections."<br> Instagram review, @raising_bookworms https: //www.instagram.com/p/CQTLmddHNmn/ "Each infographic biography showcases a historical icon's life and their experiences and achievements.
