K-3Big Buddy Pop Biographies series.
In each standard-issue biography, readers are introduced to the celebrity's early life and family, career, achievements, business ventures, and charitable works. The cheerful, adulatory texts are peppered with gratuitous exclamation points (as contestants on Dancing with the Stars, "Zendaya and her partner won second place!") and are accompanied by stock photos and "Did You Know?" boxes. There are four other fall 2017 books in this series. Glos., ind. Review covers these Big Buddy Pop Biographies titles:Demi Lovato, Ed Sheeran, Emma Watson, and Zendaya.
