BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

APPEALS TO: SOME

Vegara gives us a short, but interesting look at the highlights of De Saint-Exupery’s life. It balances his life as a pilot with the few, but beloved, books he authored. 

The Little People, Big Dreams series is so varied and interesting. They are a great model for a 2-4th grade biography project. A classroom teacher could have a collection built around particular topics for kids to read and share out to each other for building background knowledge.
