Timberdoodle's review

The Race to the South Pole
From the Stories From History series, The Race to the South Pole takes a completely factual look at the all but impossible journey to the South Pole. This book is presented in a fast-paced, graphic novel format including bright, action-packed scenes.

A Story of Terrible Tragedy and Joyous Success
In the early 1900s, one destination remained untouched by human beings � the South Pole. Antarctica's ruthless weather, including blizzards and temperatures that can reach -119�F in the winter, made human beings' attempts to reach this remote location all but impossible. However, two extraordinary men were determined to overcome the odds in a race to reach the South Pole. Thus began their voyage of frostbite, starvation, fame, and for some death. The Race to the South Pole is sure to capture any reader's attention.

I'm so glad I took the plunge and ordered it	July 29, 2009
Reviewer: Keeley B. from Franklin, TN

...I bought the historical graphic novels as a way to get my middle schooler into reading something somewhat educational. =D I didn't hand them to him, I told him they were mine. He could read the Tintin, but I was going to read these historical ones first. Muhahahaha. Of course, he started sneaking them....and enjoying them.... =D =D

So anyway, we've been having just a delightful time with the shipment of books. I'm so very impressed with your company. The confirmation email came immediately, the books were shipped out very quickly, and arrived in absolutely excellent condition. Thank you so very much.
