Akira to Zoltán: Twenty-Six Men Who Changed the World

32 pp. | Charlesbridge | July, 2006 | Library ISBN 1-57091-579-2 $15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Megan Halsey & Sean Addy. Chin-Lee presents a male version of her Amelia to Zora, exploring an alphabet of influential men by first name. Inspired mixed-media illustrations upstage the dry yet informative text. The men range from contemporary celebrities (T is for Tiger Woods) to some whose names are lesser known (E is for Japanese American astronaut Ellison Shoji Onizuka, who perished in the Challenger disaster). Quotes accompany the entries. Bib.
