5.0 out of 5 stars Good Children's Biography of FDR, September 17, 2008

This review is from: Franklin D. Roosevelt (Leading Lives) (Paperback)

Make no mistake, this biography is geared towards high school students and it is a bit of a sophisticated read but it contains a lot of good information. When a student must write a research report and find out information on FDR, this is a good book to look to. It is not an easy read so be careful with poor readers.
