Great biography! Would be a good for read-aloud with younger and quick informative read for older students (and adults).
My first graders really liked this story.
For students studying American history --even intermediate grade 4th and 5th grade students--Rosenstock's story about Jefferson's fascination with books provides a different, closer-to-home, real person view of Jefferson. There's a great quote from Jefferson in the author's notes that reveals his wish to be at home with family and books versus working in politics.
