Customer Reviews

Love this series!

I love how much I am learning from reading this series of cute little picture books. I'm also amazed at how much I didn't know before reading these books. I feel like I'm missing something! This one is about Ernest Shackleton, an Irish explorer. I like how much he is portrayed as a really positive leader. He wanted to cross Antarctica from one side to the other. He encountered trials that made his goal impossible but he made sure that all of the men with him came home safely! Loved this so much!
