From School Library Journal


Gr 2-4-- A basic biography with virtually no character analysis or interpretation; Brower simply recounts the significant incidents in Baden-Powell's life. The short sentences, good quality photographs, and large amount of white space on the pages make the book appealing to reluctant or beginning readers. This is definitely an improvement over Blassingame's Story of the Boy Scouts (Garrard, 1968) for the same audience, and libraries should consider replacing it with this newer book. --Trish Ebbatson, Delaware County District Library, OH
