I bought this for my 5 year old son and while it does have a lot of important personalities and stories, it is very lengthy and heavy for a 5-year-old child to read and he isn't interested for long. I suggest this for an older child - perhaps 10 and above.

The authors chose boys who had seriously started to have an impact by the time they were twenty. This criteria meant a lot of significant males were left out, especially those whose achievements required years of study. Nevertheless even with this strict criteria the number of remarkable accomplishments especially in those so young is amazing. Each story is only a few pages long so it is suitable to read to children or have them read it themselves.

Some stories deal with quite horrific events such as slavery and war but these were well handled by the author, neither going into unnecessary details but not ignoring the trauma either.
