[Julie · Rating 4 out of 5]

An interesting non fiction book about an inspirational man. Text boxes and photos will appeal to readers who browse. Information covers the man from childhood to his 90s, including family, career and a list of his major documentaries.

My 6 year old picked this up from the library. There are lots of pictures and nice, short paragraphs and I feel like we both learned a lot about Mr. Attenborough.
