I purchased several of the Time Life For Kids books and they are great. I have 9-year-old twin boys who are in 4th grade, and they love them! I would strongly suggest these books for any children who are interested in learning more about a specific legend or if learning about a specific legend is required for class work, book reports, etc. Great price too!

This is a biography for kids on Jackie Robinson. He was a famous African american baseball player. He had to work really hard and ignore rude comment from many fans. Most people in his days did not like black and whites playing together. He took the bad and pushed it aside and became a better person and player! The book was not too long and not too short. It contained the right amount of information for kids. I would recommend this book to kids who are learning about the Jackie Robinson. I learned a lot from reading this book. He is a great role model for kids today.
