From naughty to nice and rich, the life of Bill Gates

Bill Gates: Software Genius of Microsoft”

By Craig Peters

This book tells a lot about Bill Gates. He had some bad behavior when he was a child. It tells you about how he’s the co-founder of Microsoft and [in 2003] the richest person in the world. He has donated a lot of money to charities, and he even created his own charities to help improve people’s health and education. I’d like to meet Bill Gates someday.

To find out more interesting facts about snakes, you have to read the book.
