Virginia Brackett

This book was well organized and clearly written by Virginia Brackett that focuses on the life of Scott Fitzgerald. I do not believe that this book would be useful to students who want to learn about the things he has accomplished in his career. This book focuses mainly on they lifestyle of Fitzgerald. She discusses when he was young and moves on to talk about his alcoholism, sexuality, and infidelity problems. Overall, it is a great book and I would recommend for older students.

Although there were some good facts in this book, it was a bit on the dry side. I mean, Steve Jobs is a genius, and this book did little to excite young readers about their own ideas. Also, Some key information was ignored completely.

On the bright side, the book does introduce children to Steve Jobs and it does encourage youngsters by noting Steve's motto always seemed to be 'think different'.
