review:
'Ernest Shackleton' by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara with illustrations by Olivia Holden is a young reader biography of the famous explorer who showed amazing leadership.

Ernest Shackleton was born in Ireland to a family that had lived in the same county for 150 years. He started wanting to travel when he was 6 by digging a hole in the backyard. At 16 he started his journey to become a mariner. This led to his famous expedition and a man who would not give up until his crew all made it home.

I love this series and this is a great addition. Ernest Shackleton is someone I never read about him as a child, but I wish I had. The illustrations here are great too.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group - Frances Lincoln Children's Books, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
