Alma Flor ADA: An Author Kids Love (Authors Kids Love) [Library Binding]

Michelle Parker-Rock (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 3–5—These attractive books are based on personal interviews with the featured writers. The frequent use of direct quotes makes the texts particularly enjoyable. They also give readers a look into the individuals' family, friends, and writing experiences. Kids will be fascinated with Ada's childhood home in Cuba; Hale's hat collection and love of surfing; and Fleischman's passion for magic. Each book has a color picture of the writer sitting at his/her desk. In addition, there are black-and-white and color photos of them at different ages. Well written, interesting, and useful for reports, these biographies are solid choices.—Stephanie Farnlacher, Trace Crossings Elementary School, Hoover, AL
