This excellent series of biographies by various authors is a valuable supplement for upper primary and even lower secondary students. The FACE literature syllabus uses two of these titles in its program. The series portrays the lives of people made famous in various of areas of life and the books can thus be used in various disciplines to provide historical background. Some of the titles have slightly romanticised some of the ‘heroes’ - the orthodoxy of whose faith was to some degree questionable. Soft bound books of approx. 150 pages.
