Introduce students to some of today's best nonfiction authors and their writing-and promote nonfiction reading to young learners! Engaging biographical sketches of 65 current nonfiction authors (some of them award winners) are accompanied by selective, annotated bibliographies for further reading. In addition, author photos and an author message to students enhance the experience. Biographies outline the childhoods of the authors, how they became writers, and how they go about their work. A detailed subject index allows you to plan thematic units of study and to assist students in finding reading material that matches their interests. A diversity of current authors and subjects are represented in this useful work.
