I have purchased at least eight of the "Who Was . . . " books for my eight year old nephew and he absolutely loves them. They are written in such a way as to make any subject matter interesting. His 2nd grade teacher also recommends these books to her class.
Who was Annie Oakley, well what a woman. I always wanted to be a cowgirl when I grown-up and reading this book brought back childhood dreams. I have my students read this book, because there is not a lot about woman of the west. This series is good for students who want to read and have fun while working on a book report for their class. I purchased this book for our school library, but I read the book before I put it into the library to be checked out.
Good book with great info about Oakley's life. The large font, pictures, and short chapters make it an easy read. We homeschool and we read one "Who Was..." book each week for enrichment. Fast shipping, arrived in perfect condition. Will add it to our collection.
the "who was" book series is FANTASTIC for introducting 2nd-4th graders on many of the wonderful people that dot our history. information is very readable and factual with nice little drawings to give added detail. Highly recommend!
I love reading. However, as the mother of 3 young sons whom I also home school, I hardly have time for it! The "who was...?" series is fantastic. Interesting information without way too many dates or unnecessary facts. An easy plus interesting read if you don't have a lot of time.
I like how Annie was so generous to help people who needed help the most.I would recommend this book to people who want to make a change in history.I rated this book a 4 because I liked somethings but not other things like how some people treated her when she was a child or how she had to move away from her parents.
My daughter used this book as part of her source for a speech that she did on Annie Oakley. It made the info interesting to her. It was age-level appropriate, which was nice. Some of the other books that she checked out at the library were very dry and she lost interest in them quickly. This series seemed to keep her interest. Great book!
I read it in less than a day, also I sat on my couch reading this book, and I only got up once. Everyone should read it. Literally.
