Meet the Greats: Set 1
Who are the greats? They’re the people who have made an 
irrefutable mark through their work, talent, and activism, and their impact is 
easily recognized decades and even centuries later. Mozart, Florence 
Nightingale, Martin Luther King Jr., William Shakespeare, Sacagawea, Amelia 
Earhart—these are a few of the greats. The story of how each changed the world 
is charmingly told in the volumes of this appealing series. Each entertaining 
book presents a comprehensive biography and combines accessible text, 
amusing illustrations, full-color photographs, and bite-sized need-to-know fact 
boxes. 
• Readers will be drawn to the colorful, lively design 
• “Quick Facts” boxes highlight essential data 
• Biographies 
offer opportunities to 
exercise understanding of chronology and cause and effect, which 
are reading standards of the Common Core
