Definetly A 5 Star!!


Information on my book:
Title: Something out of Nothing
By: Carla Killough McClafferty (shown in the picture above)
Copyright Date: First Edition 2006
Publication: Farror Straus Giroux, New York

The book, Something Out of Nothing, was an incredible book. It told me a ton about Marie Curie and had a lot of detailed pictures. The story used many vivid words that helped me understand the story more. I could picture everything that was happening during the biography. That clearly means this was a GOOD book.

I would definitely read another book by this author because she makes things come to life and uses great word choice throughout her writing. During the biography, Carla made it in a more creative way than just the plain old facts. If I could read another book by this author, my answer would be a 100 percent yes!

If there was one thing I could change about this biography to make it PERFECT, I would include a timeline. That way, I can look back at the timeline to make sure I understand when the events during the book are taking place. Many students would prefer having a timeline in books because, like me, they can use the timeline as another reference. Adding a timeline would be the only thing that I would want to add to this book to make it the best biography in the world!!
