Another CCBCer suggested that biographies work best when the historical context is woven into the story of the person. Combining nonfiction and historical fiction adds depth to a reader's understanding. It's wonderful when teachers and librarians are able to create book lists that round out a topic for students. I like adding maps and physical objects when appropriate, too.
