A review by teacher_may
Shakira by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara

4.0

A short read to get kids interested in the life of Shakira. I appreciate the inclusion of her Arabic name and culture in the book (within the first few pages), as well as accomplishments made in her childhood inspired her to follow her dreams. I love that this series includes a short timeline at the end highlighting in more detail pivotal moments in Shakira's life. This is currently a classroom favorite!

This is a great book (series) for reluctant readers and middle grade grade readers with a lower reading level.
