Picture Book Biographies
Picture book biographies are a growing trend in publishing. They are narrative nonfiction books which are written like a story making them appealing to children. They tend to be beautifully illustrated and easy to read, and offer young learners an excellent introduction to some of the most important people in our history. Some examples of interesting titles we have available for you include:
Fab Four Friends: The Boys Who Became the Beatles by Susanna Reich, illustrated by Adam Gustavson
Bloom: A Story of Fashion Designer Elsa Schiaparelli by Kyo Maclear, illustrated by Julie Morstad
