Famous People and Genetic Disorders by S. Kaplan (Eagle River, Alaska)  1 Stars
May 03, 2008
I purchased this book on Amazon because it sounded interesting. Unfortunately there was not the option to peek inside the book before buying it, as it was a disappointment. For some reason the font used is huge although the description of the book said nothing about it being a large print book. It is 99 pages long, but would actually be more like 33 if the font were normal, and I read it in less than an hour. Going beyond the annoying font, the book is superficial in its treatment of these famous people and their genetic disorders. At one point I checked to be sure this wasn't actually written as a book for older children. Its almost as though the author had at one point written a school term paper on this subject, and decided to turn it into a book. I do not recommend this book at all.
