10 Explorers Who Changed the World is about ten different explorers and the adventures they had. It tells facts you probably all ready knew about the explorers and facts that you might not be able to find in a textbook. After each story about the explorer there is a Life Link. A Life Link tells you how the explorer you read about and the next explorer are related. For example, after a short story about Marco Polo there is a Life Link that tells how The Travels of Marco Polo inspired Christopher Columbus.

Opinion: 

This book is well written. I loved the amount of graphics and captions that there were. The illustrator is very talented and did a very good job illustrating this book. I would recommend this book for those who like history and adventure. I think the Life Links were very interesting and a good idea. This book would also be a good reference source for children in fourth, fifth, or sixth grade to use for a report about explorers.
