Gr 5-8-Though these books provide more information about their subjects than the other celebrity biography series on this list (there is a discussion of each star's childhood, rise to fame, and accomplishments), the information is not always conveyed clearly, and can sometimes be too casual-a discussion of pop music in Miley Cyrus, for example, statesj , ".when it's hot, it's HOT!" Also, quotes from sources such as the Associated Press and The Wall Street Journal are used and there is a bibliography, but citations are not given. Sidebars and color photos provide a further glimpse into the lives and careers of these singers. However, the interest level of the books doesn't compensate for the weak, unfocused, and often inappropriately casual writing found in most of them. (c) Copyright 2011.
