Adorable Jane Goodall Biography submitted by crazypockets on June 16, 2012, 2:41pm This is a picture book biography of the famous scientist, Jane Goodall. There aren't a lot of biographies out there for younger (preschool and Kindergarten-age) children, so it's nice to see this book. It's adorably-illustrated and uses simple words and imagery to tell the story of how Jane Goodall first became interested in the world around her and then went on to become the world's leading authority on chimpanzee populations. So cute! Check it out!

Must read submitted by klickitat on August 6, 2012, 8:44am I love the use of engravings and archival photographs to round out the illustrations. Such a beautiful book about an inspiring woman. Great message (ugh, I know) for kids. Paraphrased: Be an ubernerd and you just might make the world a better place.

Loved it submitted by fireflynights on August 9, 2013, 9:13pm I loved this book. I thought it was charming and beautifully illustrated. It is so different from other children's books. It was a joy to read.

Jane Goodall submitted by SadieRose on July 2, 2018, 10:04am Me ... Jane is a very colorful and happy book.

Love this book. submitted by unknown on July 13, 2020, 5:11pm This is a great book for kids -- for a long time I couldn't read it without crying. Such an inspiring story. Jane Goodall is a real b@d@ss.
