Hi! I’m Leo and this is my friend, Sam. We’re going to tell
you about Biographies.
Sam will give you a piece of his cheese if you remember what
we teach you. Will you get
your cheese? We’ll see . . .
A biography is the story of a
person’s life that is written by
another person.
If I wrote the story of Leo’s
life, it would be called a
biography.
An autobiography is the story of a
person’s life that is written by the person
himself.
If Leo writes the story of his own life, it is
called an autobiography.
Biography = Someone else writes the story of Leo’s life.
Autobiography = Leo writes the story of his own life.
Here are some things you will learn
when you read a biography.Events that happened in the
person’s life.
What the person did that made him famous.
Biography books are placed together
on the same shelves in the library.

That’s because they have the same Dewey number: 92.
The first part of the call number for biography is 921. What do you think the 3 letters in the second
part of the call number stand for?

It’s time to see if you remember what we have taught you about
biography.
What is the difference between a biography and an
autobiography?
A biography is the story of a person’s life that is written
by someone else.
An autobiography is the story of a person’s life that
is written by the person himself.
Good Job!
