Prince 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 innovative icons while
maintaining an age-appropriate level of detail.
Due out 19th Jan 2021 from Quarto on their Frances Lincoln imprint, it's be 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 Cachetejack is appealing and colorful and supports the text well. The
illustrations are bold and full of bright contrasting colors and simple lines, almost abstract, but still easy to identify.
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 Prince'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. Prince was an incredibly gifted and accomplished artist
and this book is a nice tribute to an iconic entertainer.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes
