McDonnell, P., Schultz, J., & Little, B. (2011). Me…Jane. New York: Little, Brown.
This book tells the reader the
charming tale of scientist Jane Goodall’s childhood. It takes you through her experience of
watching the miracle of a chicken laying an egg and how patiently she waited
for that moment in the hen house. She
studied everything she could about animals she wanted to so badly be a part of
their world. She dreamed of a life in
Africa, living with and helping all animals.
This book uses some of Jane Goodall’s actual drawing as illustrations in
the book.
Evaluative Criteria:
Style
This book does and amazing job of presenting biographical
work on Jane Goodall as a typical children’s tale. The illustrations keep with the idea of a
children’s book while also adding Goodall’s own sketches to bring validity to
the work.
