Biographies give students a “you are there” understanding of the people who change our world … past, present
and future. With subjects ranging from great historical figures to today’s sports and entertainment icons,
biographies support and extend the curricula in science, language arts and social studies. And yes, they make great
leisure “reads” too!

How do mothers and fathers – whether they
are apple trees, sheep, or humans – pass down traits to their
children? This question fascinated Gregor Mendel throughout his life.
Regarded as the world’s first geneticist, Gregor Mendel overcame
poverty and obscurity to discover one of the fundamental aspects of
genetic science: Animals, plants and people all inherit and pass down
traits through the same process, following the same rules.

George Washington & the Founding of a Nation
Marrin, Albert. Dutton Children’s Books c2003.
Trade Paperback ed. Grades 6 and up.
This biography presents a thorough look at the life of the first president
as well as clear presentations of the people and events that shaped
his world. A good portion of the text focuses on Washington’s military
career, including details of individual campaigns and battles. The general’s
courage, bravado and intangible leadership qualities emerge through
descriptions of his wartime actions and through the words of those who
fought with and against him. The harshness of war comes through in
sometimes gruesome detail, showing the cruelty that prevailed on both
sides. Washington unhesitatingly orders the execution of mutineers from
his own army, judging that a more merciful decision would have cost
more in the long run. The author clearly admires his subject, yet carefully
discusses his flaws and errors. He raises questions and presents differing
views without interrupting the flow of the narrative. Well-chosen quotations,
many from Washington’s own writings, enliven the text as well. Numerous
historical drawings, paintings and etchings help to bring the period alive.

The Long March: The Choctaw’s
Gift to Irish Famine Relief
Fitzpatrick, Marie-Louise. Tricycle Press
c1998. Grades 1 and up.
Responding to a nationwide appeal during the
Irish potato famine, the impoverished Choctaw
nation collected $170 (about $5,000 in modern
terms) only 15 years after their forced relocation by whites to what
is now Oklahoma; with fine insight, this commemoration explains how
and why the Choctaw were able to set their anger aside. Choona,
too young to know the details of his people’s long march, hears the
tale from his great-grandmother and rebels at the thought of sending
money to Europeans; he comes to understand that the gift will help
its givers as much, if not more, than its receivers.

Left for Dead: A Young Man’s Search
for Justice for the USS Indianapolis
Nelson, Pete. Delacorte Press c2002.
Grades 6-8.
The book recalls the sinking of the USS Indianapolis
at the end of World War II, the Navy cover-up and
unfair court martial of the ship’s captain, and how a young boy helped
the survivors set the record straight fifty-five years later. Just after
midnight on July 30, 1945, the USS Indianapolis was torpedoed by a
Japanese submarine. The ship sank in fourteen minutes. More than a
thousand men were thrown into shark-infested waters. Those who
survived the fiery sinking – some injured, many without life jackets
– struggled to stay afloat as they waited for rescue. But the United
States Navy did not even know they were missing. The Navy needed a
scapegoat for this disaster. So it court-martialed the captain for
“hazarding” his ship. The survivors of the Indianapolis knew that their
captain was not to blame. For fifty years they worked to clear his
name, even after his untimely death. But the Navy would not budge –
until an eleven-year-old boy named Hunter Scott entered the picture.
His history fair project on the Indianapolis soon became a crusade to
restore the captain’s good name and the honor of the men who served
under him.

Ready or Not, Here Life Comes
Levine, Melvin D. Simon & Schuster c2005.
Grades 9 and up.
A nationally known pediatrician and author addresses the
question of why some youngsters make a successful transition
into adulthood while others do not. Parents and schools often
raise children in a highly-structured world, leaving them unable
to cope on their own. Dr. Levine urges that schools teach “life
prep”, equipping adolescents with what they will need to succeed
as adults. He identifies these skills as “the four I’s”: inner
direction, or self-awareness; interpretation, or understanding
the outside world; instrumentation, or the acquisition of
mental tools; and interaction, or the ability to relate to other
people effectively. He offers advice for young adults who find
themselves unable to navigate the world of careers.
