(4) K-3 National Geographic Readers series. These level-two biographies (for "reading independently") provide chronological accounts of their subjects' lives and cursorily touch on obstacles faced by Douglass and Keller. "In Her/His Own Words" boxes spotlight quotes from the subjects themselves. Captioned photos and illustrations help break up the serviceable texts. In both, a several-page timeline footer, unaligned with the narrative, starts toward book's end. A quiz is appended. Glos. Review covers these National Geographic Readers titles: Helen Keller and Frederick Douglass.
