My 8 year old loves these books! They are full of great information and easy to read and follow along. I enjoy reading them together and discussing the history in them!

I have stated previously that I like these titles because of the variety, interest level, and readability. As a tutor, I work with reluctant readers who often prefer nonfiction to fiction, so these are my goto resources for my students. The content is educational, not too easy as well as the vocabulary. I like that there are chapters and added content, sort of like side bars. The only thing lacking is an index, but there are great timelines which my student often reference.

I would recommend to anyone. I bought this book for my daughter 2nd grade homework and it’s definitely not for 2nd graders but it was a great book. Well narrated and my daughter loved it

I purchased a Kindle copy for a 5th grade AR test due the next day. It was $4 to $5 more than the actual book would have cost. I didn't have time to wait for Amazon Prime "2-day" shipping.
I used to be a teacher and personally find the idea that children should be able to read a non-fiction book such as "What Was the Hindenburg?" or "Who was Christopher Columbus?" in one day and remember every date and fact for a test the next day. Most adults would have to study that information repeatedly to perform well on a test. Why are children held to a higher standard? Idk!
The biographies are easier for retaining info because they are in story format. So the Albert Einstein book is one of the best in the series. If your looking because your child has an AR test tomorrow then I would recommend this book for a strong reader and expect a passing score of 80%.

Ok, I'm going to start off by saying that my son absolutely HATES to read. He's always struggled with reading. This is the first book he read on his own without me pushing him to read. He's in middle school so this is a little under his grade level, but it was perfect for him. He had to read a biography for school, so I got him "Who was Frank Lloyd Wright?" ( my son loves building, and thought he might find it a little interesting) Surprisingly, he enjoyed it, and completed his book report before the deadline. So I bought him this book to read for fun because he also loves science. He had it finished in under 2 weeks! So I will definitely be buying more books (or checking them out from the library) in the near future. FINALLY! A book series my son WANTS to read!!! And they're educational too!

The “Who Was ... “ series is a fascinating series for children, written at an appropriate reading age and information selected to bring the people alive. (See later comment.)

Einstein, lists his major accomplishments, theories, his Nobel Prize, family life and European history in detail.Inevitably, it takes readers into spectacular of history parents may prefer to leave until children are more mature

Well worth reading, even if it poses questions some parents will have difficulty answering. My recommendation to parents is to read it first and make a decision based on knowledge of their own children - read now or leave it on the bookshelf until later. I know there are questions about appropriate age and difficty on the next page which will be challenging to answer in a generic way.

My children read the book and learned a great deal. It’s like History written for children between the ages of 7 and 12. We order a few of these books when schools were closed - during the Corona pandemic as a way to continue their education.
