Read with my son for school. I wouldn't call it thrilling but definitely a good overview of Napoleon's life.

"The Story of Napoleon" by HE Marshall
A Children's tale in only about 40 pages in my edition, "The Story of Napoleon" is A children's work by HE Marshall, a Scottish historian, who aims on teaching the French Emperor Napoleon on a bright light to children interested in history.
MY THOUGHTS:
I Honestly thought that this wasn't for kids as it didn't cross my mind. I thought that this book would be an easy read because it is just around 40 pages. Well, I was right but why was I reading a children's work after all? I should've read the synopsis and the fact that this was a children's tale!
Anyway, this work was quite an average read, I forgot things about Napoleon but I was able to remember things. The British were kind of painted on a bad light in this book, I have to agree with the other reviews for this book on Goodreads. Anyway, a great book if ever I have a child I'd be happy to let them read this work for school or for pleasure.
