I love biographies. I remember reading one when I was a little girl about Clara Barton. After I read it I wanted to be a nurse. But that soon changed when I realized I couldn't stand the sight of blood. I read four biographies by Margaret Davidson and for the most part I really enjoyed then, Thomas Edison, Frederick Douglass, Louis Braille, and Helen Keller. I learned something about each person I read about. These books could be used to introduce biographies and could possible be used to help students write an autobiographical piece of writing.
