I enjoyed this book because I found out a great deal of important information about Mark Twain in a way that was easy to read and understand. I think this book is great at getting children interested in this famous author. I enjoyed the pictures as they showed the images of that time period. I also liked that there were maps and background information about historical events during Mark Twains life.

I bought this book for my 10 year old reluctant reader. Most of the time she'll only read a few pages of chapter books. This book she didn't put down until she had read the whole thing! I will definately be buying more books in the " Who is ...?" series!

I bought this book for my 8-year-old granddaughter because she had been reading some of Mark Twain's stories which had been edited for younger readers, and my daughter told me that she was really enjoying them. Here is her review of "Who Was Mark Twain?".
Dear Grandma,
I really loved the book about Mark Twain. It was kind of sad towards the end, but that kind of gave the moral to the story. In the old times, people got very sick. I liked the beginning especially, because it told about when Mark Twain was a boy. I learned about Halley's Comet. It was fun and interesting. His stories were based on his own life. So now you can see that I liked it a lot!!
Thank you for giving me this book. It was great!
Love,
Laurel
