Meet Thomas Jefferson (Landmark Books)

This is a good, basic book about Thomas Jefferson that goes a little bit deeper than an early reader. It's more of a beginning chapter type of book. It covers the basics of his life and is done in an easy-to-read way... but I just found it somewhat dry to read. Still, it's a good book for those being introduced to history. Nothing controversial in it, I felt like the author was fair.This book was recommended to me for my child's third grade history, so I decided to read it first before I handed it off to her. So comparing to many of the other history books I've been reading (a good 30 or 40 of them!), I definitely found this one a bit boring and dry. Which is why I gave it four stars instead of 5. But still, all around a good book that I could recommend.

Purchased for my grandson. He is being taught virtually. He loved the book

Good little history book for children of all ages

Great biography about Thomas Jeffereson.

Love this charming biography. Thank you for sending so quickly. It more than meets my expectations. Good job.

I bought three of these historical books for my 10-year old (5th grader). Since he has book reports every month, I wanted something that would be an easy read. However, this series is not for his age. The books are terrific, but my 7-year old got the most benefit from them. She is not an avid reader, however she didn't want put them down until she finished. Bottom line - great book for a 2nd grader.

My 2nd grade son chose this book for a recent book report. I have to say, it's BY FAR, the best book that we've read on a president. Interesting facts, great illustrations and age appropriate text made it an easy read. I was thrilled when we finished the book with how much he remembered and STILL remembers months later about Jefferson. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.

However much I thought this book would help us dig in to a bit of history thus book did its job. However don't be surprised when you kid recalls details like how Jefferson built his house and his family details instead of anything to do with the Declaration of Independence.
