Megan Rapinoe is a new biography for young readers in the Little People, Big Dreams series. I've reviewed a number of these titles
and all of them are delightful and exuberant little books which cover
the lives of famous cultural, science, arts, and innovation icons while
maintaining an age-appropriate level of detail. Due out 2nd Feb 2021 from Quarto on their Frances Lincoln imprint, it's 32 pages and will be available in hardcover, and ebook formats.
Written by Isabel Sánchez Vegara
it's well written in clear accessible language. The whimsical and energetic illustrations were well done. The art by Paulina Morgan is full of fun - appealing and colorful, they just bounce off the page. The
illustrations are bold and full of bright contrasting colors and simple lines and lots and lots of energy.
Well written and appealing, I am really enjoying all of these little
books. This one is a worthy addition. The author has included a timeline
at the back of the book with some photos and highlights from Ms. Rapinoe's life, as well as a very short bibliography including books to explore
further.
Five stars. This would make a superlative reading circle book, classroom
library book, or gift. I like that these books cover arts, sports, science, historical, and entertainment icons. There's something for everyone.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes
