92 or 920 Biography

92 is the section for biographies--books about famous people. 920 is the section for books that have several famous people in one book (like maybe a book on all the presidents instead of just one certain president).

Wilma Rudolph by Kathleen Krull
92 RUD

This is an amazing story of a lady that was told she might not live past her 1st birthday and was then told she would never walk. Not only did she survive, but through sheer determination and drive received an athletic scholarship to college and then went on to win 3 Olympic gold medals. What a wonderul inspiration to all people, especially female athletes. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The Elephant Man By Frederick Drimmer 92 Mer
This was a very interesting book. Joseph Merrick was a person who needed love and attention but he never got it until he met the best Doctor I have ever seen. Dr.Treves of London was so good to Joseph. It is so heartwarming to read about all that Dr. Treves did for Joseph. I really enjoyed this book. I learned a little about the disease, neurofibromatosis also.
This is a good read.

John James Audobon by James Sterling Ayars 92 Aud

To keep up my theme of bird books, I chose the biography of John Audobon. He liked to walk in fields and pastures. He never did his lessona at school but drew a lot of pictures of birds and their nests. He is one of those people who did not do good in school but used his talens to become famous doing something he loved.
