Judith St. George ; illustrated by David Small

Sticking with a sure thing, the Caldecott-winning authors of So You Want to Be President and So You Want to Be an Inventor have published their third similar title, this one highlighting 59 famous explorers in tiny snippets that just introduce them, with plenty of humor and interesting facts. This would be ideal for an introduction to a biography project using explorers, or as a companion to their other books. There's not enough information about any one explorer to be considered biographical, but there is enough to spark interest. Highly Recommended.
