About the Author:
Anthony Masters is a contributor for Kingfisher titles including: 'Doughnut Danger','Ricky's Rat Gang','Heroic Stories'
From Booklist:
Gr. 4-8. Masters' heroes are of several types: those who deliberately seek danger or adventure, like Charles Lindbergh; those who react magnificently to a challenge not of their choosing, like Anne Frank; and those who devote their lives to a cause or mission, like Mother Teresa. Most of these 23 biographical accounts are related in 8 to 10 pages, and Masters attempts to isolate the qualities that prepared the individuals to respond courageously when called upon. Students looking for subjects to read about for school reports will find good introductions here. Both this and Wynne Jones' Fantasy Stories, also reviewed in this issue, make a promising beginning to the Story Library series. Sheilamae O'Hara
