Themes: Hi-Lo, graphic novels, illustrated, biography. Fast-paced and easy-to-read, these softcover 25-page graphic biographies teach students about historical figures: those who lead us into new territory; pursued scientific discoveries; battled injustice and prejudice; and broke down creative and artistic barriers. These biographies offer a variety of rich primary and secondary source material to support teaching to the standards. Using the graphics, students can activate prior knowledge--bridge what they already know with what they have yet to learn. Graphically illustrated biographies also teach inference skills, character development, dialogue, transitions, and drawing conclusions. Graphic biographies in the classroom provide an intervention with proven success for the struggling reader.

Perempuan hebat dan penuh dedikasi. meninggal karena leukimia akibat meneliti radium bertahun-tahun, efek dari radiasi. Hasil penelitian mengenai radium tidak ia patenkan untuk mendapatkan banyak uang tapi diserahkan pada publik untuk kemajuan ilmu pengetahuan. Itulah Sciencetific Spirit! Inspirratif!
