John Deere, That's Who!

John Deere, That's Who! by Tracy Nelson Mauer and illustrated by Tim Zeltner is a title my sister suggested to me this summer.  It is a picture book biography of John Deere, a  name every farmer's daughter knows.  This brief story is like most other biographies, telling of the challenges and successes of a person.  Though most people would recognize the name John Deere, this book shed light on what John Deere really made-plows and other horse drawn implements.  It is a good book to share with children about U.S. history, biographies, or persistence.  I plan to keep this one checked out until my dad gets a chance to read it.
