Theodore H. Mainman became famous because he invented the laser.  I wanted to know who invented the laser and how the laser was made.  If you have been wondering how satellites send messages from space to earth, then this is the book to read.

Elvis Presley, reviewed by Allissa D

Elvis became famous for his wonderful songs and dance moves. His first song was called "Heartbreak Hotel". It came out in 1956. What I think is interesting about Elvis is that I like finding out his history. Like on May 1967 Elvis married Prisilla Beaulieu,and some people made coins with his face on them.Why others should learn about Elvis is that it's really fun and interesting. Even some other famous people think so like John Lennon of the Beatles. He said, ''Before Elvis there was nothing.''

Stand Tall Abe Lincoln,reviewed by Devyn H.

Stand Tall Abe Lincoln was about Abe Lincoln and how he became famous by becoming the sixteenth president of the United States. One detail about Abe Lincoln I think is interesting is that when he was six he could write his name in cursive better than his teacher!

Mia Hamm,Winners Never Quit!, reviewed by Emily F.

Mia would never give up. Even if she lost a soccer game. She would keep playing until the the game was over. When Mia was a little girl she would always quit if she was losing. Then one day everyone said she was going to quit, but she proved them wrong and stayed in the game. She played until the game was over. Mia Hamm would say that if you're losing you should never give up and never quit! WINNERS NEVER QUIT!!!!!

Miss Spitfire, reviewed by Meha G.

The book Miss Spitfire is about Annie (Annie) Sullivan , also known as Miss Spitfire. Annie was Helen Keller's teacher, and Helen was deaf and blind. Annie was a half blind orphan. While she was teaching wild Helen one day, Helen knocked out one of Annie's teeth and locked her in a room. It took about one month before Helen gave Annie her first kiss. Other people should read this book because Annie Sullivan is inspiring and is a great role model to help people. P.S. Miss Spitfire is a very difficult reading level.
