- Reading
- Choose one of the ten figures your child recognises, then follow the book’s account of that person’s influence before comparing it with another example.
- Themes
- Admiration and influence: The book describes people admired by ten famous men and gives examples of a chosen model and a father whose career parallels his son’s. The premise foregrounds influence, but does not establish whether each relationship is presented critically or simply recounted.
- Worth knowing
- Pay particular attention to Admiration and influence.
