A review by danicapage
Shakira by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara
3.0
My Rating: 3 out of 5 stars.
Received for review: I received an advanced copy of this novel from the publisher in exchange for my honest opinion. I was not obligated to write a good review, nor did I receive any compensation for writing this review.
Why did I decide to turn the pages? I have enjoyed previous books by Maria, and I was Interested in this one as well.
My Overall Thoughts/Impressions: Maria does a great job of distilling a lot of information quickly. For readers who prefer non-fiction, these are great short snapshots of individuals from a variety of backgrounds, professionally and demographically.
This one was not my favorite by Maria, but it was still well done. I can see kids, especially girls, who are interested in singing and music, particularly, gravitating toward this one.
I enjoy Maria's illustration style. It's not as flashy as some, and is a bit more muted, but I enjoy it.
So why 3 stars? While I did enjoy it, I have read better in the genre.
Pages: about 32.
Reading age: 4-7
