Once again I found another very good non-fiction book, despite not being interested in non-fictions coming into the year, I found some that I like. Especially this one. I learned a lot, like the fact that he was not working at Apple for a long time, or that he was adopted. Needless to say there were a lot of things I did not know about him. If I wrote a book for the "Who Was?" series I would make it a little longer. All in all, I would recommend this book to anyone The Who Was series continues to produce biographies on extraordinary figures. This particular story reveals interesting aspects of Steve Jobs' life that many people did not know. Pamela Pollack writes about Jobs from his birth until his death. Steve Jobs created one of the biggest brands in the world and his talents shouldn't go unnoticed. This book can be used in literacy to teach different types of writing. There is a humorous aspect to this biography and that is something that can be noted when reading with students.
What do You think about ¿Quién Fue Steve Jobs? (2012)?
It was recommended to me but I found it very shallow. Too busy and just not insightful.

After reading the small kids version, I want to read his autobiography.
