5.0 out of 5 starsWho Was Elvis Presley?
By Janet E. Jorgensen on September 4, 2009
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This is a must read for Elvis fans. Very funny and respectful, yet truthful in how many of us are so weird in our continued devotion to this amazing icon.

By essgee on December 11, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Even though I am not a fan of Elvis, you can't deny the guy changed the direction music took. I bought several of these for my 12-year-old daughter to read. My wife ended up reading them as well. Both of them thoroughly enjoyed all of the "Who Was...?" books and learned new things about each of the people or bands we got.

By Shelli on October 31, 2014
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
The <i>Who Was…?</I> biography series are perfect for elementary or intermediate age students interested learning about the featured person for an assignment or just for fun. This look into the life of The King of Rock N’ Roll was a great way to start off our mornings and caused the i-pod to change from its normal shuffle mode to strictly Elvis and his varied styles of music.

5.0 out of 5 starsPerfect for biography reading lesson and report writing in 3rd/4th gr
By Jennifer on March 17, 2014
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I bought these for my third grade classroom. They are great for the biography genre and then to use for report writing. The three years I've used them so far the kids LOVED them. Easy for their reading levels, informative, and people they have heard of in their lives. They would read their own and then read other that they had heard of. Could have left these books out 1/2 year and they would have still been reading them.

By MAXIMILLIAN MUHAMMAD HALL OF FAME on August 17, 2008
Format: Paperback
in remembering his death around this time of the year this is a good book for a younger era to find out who Elvis Presley was and what made him who he was as a artist. this book covers alot of territory and isn't long and it is a cool book for a newbie on Elvis.

5.0 out of 5 starsA great resource for readers 8-12 years of age
By The Reviewer Formerly Known as Kurt Johnson TOP 1000 REVIEWER on April 17, 2015
Format: Paperback
This book is part of Grosset & Dunlap’s “Who Was...?” series. Like most all of the books in this series, this one is an excellent biography. It does a great job of covering Elvis’s life, from his birth in Tupelo, Mississippi, through to his death in 1973, with many informative sidebars on things the reader should know.

Yeah, as you can tell, I do think that this is a great book. It really had a lot of great information on the King of Rock 'n' Roll! My nine-year-old enjoyed it, and really gained a lot of understanding of him. It really is a great resource for readers 8-12 years of age. We both highly recommend it!

By Lindsay Dewitt on December 10, 2012
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
My students loved this book! They are really interested in nonfiction and biographies right now, so I let them pick out the
biographies they wanted to read. This was their choice and it didn't disappoint. They're still passing it around the classroom!
