From AudioFile
[Editor's Note: The following is a combined review with JESSE VENTURA.]--These two selections from A & E's "Biography" series are decent introductions to their subjects for a younger audience. Both are written in a journalistic style that is easy to follow and, in the case of Ventura's biography, entertaining. Like many biographies for youth, these works are a bit long on praise and short on analysis. White and Ordunio both give creditable performances that reflect the texts: neither flashy nor academic, just the facts. Ordunio has a somewhat staccato manner of delivery, while White's is smoother and softer. M.T.F. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

5.0 out of 5 stars
Good kids' intro,

This review is from: Saint Joan of Arc (Biography (Lerner Hardcover)) (Hardcover)
A very nice overview of Joan of Arc primarily for middle school students, though younger and older could probably read it, too. It makes clear how awesome Joan was, while keeping her very human. Well illustrated and easy to read, with references. A good introduction.
