A big bonus is the cumulative timeline that runs at the bottom of each spread. Subjects are either names that may be recognized (e.g. Bill Gates) or individuals that represent well-known products (e.g. Milton Hershey). Solid early-reader biographies.-- School Library Journal If kids don't instantly recognize the name Milton Snavely Hershey, they'll certainly know the basically unchanged, famous chocolate bar he invented in 1900. This beginner biography in the Business Leaders series tells how Hershey never finished school and, instead, was forced to work as a candy-store apprentice. The event paved the way for him to become both a great chocolatier and humanitarian.-- Book Links, Overlooked Inventors and Their Notable Inventions This semisweet (get it?) entry into the Business Leaders series is chock full of period photos, cool factoids (like the nonmelting chocolate invented for soldiers in WWII), and a nifty page-to-page time line, and is bathed in a tasty brown design. Dig in.-- Booklist
