A review by vreadsabook
Who Was Marco Polo? by Joan Holub

4.0

I volunteer through a pen pal service to get and discuss books with fifth graders. This is the biography that my pen pal chose. I must say, I found this book to be really well-written for the age group. While obviously it was not particularly enlightening reading for myself, I was surprised by just how much information was crammed into the compact little book. It also seemed very interactive with the special sections. I was particularly impressed by the "What life would be like if you were a..." sections. I found them engrossing and could very well encourage to children to understand what life might be like in other cultures and time periods they are unfamiliar with.
