jerrydavis said: Readers in grades 4 to 5 in particular have a harder time reading nonfiction. The vocabulary is difficult and they often don't understand much of the context of a story. Take biographies of American presidents, for example, in the DK series. These can be difficult to for young students to read. They have to understand the time period and its complex issues. The "Who Was" series does a nice job of taking the complicated lives of famous people and making them more understandable and accessible.
