Darwin by Alice B. McGinty


McGinty, Alice B. Darwin, illustrated by Mary Azarian. Houghton Mifflin, 2009. $18.00. PICTURE BOOK (42 p). While this looks like a picture book, there is quite a bit of information, including short quotes from Darwin’s personal journal and letters. SO much text, in fact, that it is much more a book for a short research project than one to read aloud to a class. This one, or Lasky’s One Beetle Too Many, are a good choice for a Darwin book in your library. EL, MS – ADVISABLE. Cindy, Library-Teacher.
