Series Review: Hispanic Headliners"The diverse selection of subjects makes this an unusual collection of titles, but individual books will stand alone as worthwhile selections."
--School Library Journal
Book Review: Selena Gomez
"This is a well-written biography for young children. It highlights information that would best suit their interest when trying to learn more about Selena Gomez. Well written. Perfect for adding to your collection of biographies. Photographs are nice and clear. It doesn't look like some paparazzi photos stuck in a book to try and make money."
--Leslie Woolsey, Cesar Chavez Elementary, Little Elm, TX
Book Review: Shakira
"The bright format, with its geometric shapes, makes a cool background for the color photographs and will draw readers to the simple text. Spanish-speaking students will be motivated to pick this up, too."
