The spotlight shines on flute-playing popstar Lizzo in this offering from the Easy Star Biographies series (8 titles), which is targeted at beginning readers. Rather than look at her early life, the biography focuses on the start of her career, her success, and what fans love about her—her look, her upbeat songs, etc.
Each double-page spread features a large photo of Lizzo performing or attending special events and one to two short, easy-to-read sentences that are accessible to beginning readers. After the main text, readers will find seven “Fast Facts” (written at a slightly higher level), a time line, and a glossary.
Written prior to the accusations against her that challenge her image and public persona, this is a scandal-free snapshot of the popular singer.
