| Rating: four and half stars.
I absolutely love this series of books because it is a good way to introduce kids to some of histories greatest and more wicked lives. I am a teacher of middle school students, and I cannot tell you how many of my students have no idea about people throughout history. To prove my point, I had a student ask if Alexander the Great was a character in the cartoon "Little Bill". I had to politely correct her and tell her that she was thinking of Alice the Great, not Alexander. This really opened my eyes on this problem, and how little our youth know about the past. They don't even know who Mark Twain is, but that is for a different discussion. This book gives a lot of good information about Alexander from his youth up to the time of his ultimate demise. It explains some of the battles he won, and, of course, the toll most of this took on his mind. From the paranoia present when he killed one of his good friends and allies, to the vanity present when he continues his pursuit for world domination, Alexander was an intriguing individual and this book helps introduce students to this man who was as narcissistic as he was great. Any middle school or late elementary school student should read this series to become familar with these individuals. Maybe then, they will no longer think these people are characters in modern movies or cartoons, but someone who is quite legendary.
