By Helga Stokes


Anyone who reads realizes that historical non fiction books are fabulous. Throughout the centuries there have been many people who have made a major difference within our world. Their names are quite familiar to everyone who is able to gain an education. Martin Luther King Jr., Mother Teresa, Amelia Earhart, Ludwig van Beethoven, Jesus Christ and Helen Keller have all earned their place in history.

Her life is fully written about in a novel called "Helen Keller: The Story Of My Life." People will get a chance to learn about all of this woman's struggles during her childhood and adult life. She was a person who was born without the use of sight or hearing.

There is no other man greater than Jesus Christ and he lived on this planet a very long time ago. He is also known as the son of God and managed to bring peace and wisdom to all mankind. Unfortunately human beings were not fully appreciative of his arrival and therefore this great man was crucified. His life story is told in a writing titled "Who Is Jesus."

Another great American who lived some time ago was a gentleman called Martin Luther King Jr. He was always in a constant struggle with individuals who did not want to treat people with color fairly. During his lifetime he managed to break through many of the barriers that black people faced. "Martins Dream" is one novel which focuses on his life and achievements.

Ludwig van Beethoven was an inspiring musician who brought great changes to the music world. He lived from December 17, 1770 until March 26, 1827 and accomplished many things during his lifetime. Many music artist of today still use his style within their songs. Anyone who is interested in learning more about this composer really needs to read "Bold Composer: A Story About Ludwig van Beethoven."

Mother Teresa was a force of nature who everyone loved and admired. During her life she was able to care for all types of individuals who suffered from disease and illness. She was given many awards for her work and young women across the world wanted to be just like her. "Come Be My Light" tells all about her life and great deeds that were done.

Rosa Parks became an important part of American history when she did not allow someone else to have her seat on a southern bus. This lady gained attention all over the world after her arrests and every school within the United States teaches their students about her. "I Am Rosa Parks" is one writing that everyone should read.

Everyone loves to read historical non fiction books from time to time. They also enjoy reading about the adventures of a lady known as Amelia Earhart.
