Review :
"The Real Lives series uses an exceptionally attractive design as background for its short biography collections on a variety of subjects. Explorers and Pioneers features such historical subjects as Sacagawea and Christopher Columbus and less-well-known figures like explorer Ranulph Fiennes and nineteenth-century travel-writer Isabella Bird. Similarly, Incredible Successes includes a wide range of people from Frederick Douglass to Richard Branson, Harry Truman to surfer Bethany Hamilton, who lost her arm to a shark. Each subject gets a two-page spread where the draw is a full-page portrait, a photo or painting that has been digitally enhanced to pop. The picture faces a page of information that reads like a sprightly encyclopedia entry. The series is most useful when introducing readers to those they might not otherwise come across, and there are additional, bite-size introductions in the back matter. An eye-catching choice for browsers and inspiration seekers." --Booklist "This is an important series about people who contributed to humanity and changed the course of many lives. Each volume portrays the courage and conviction of people who may not be well known but who achieved their goals and altered the world against all odds." --School Library Connection (SLC)
