K-3Big Buddy Biographies series.
Each subject's rise to fame is chronicled in a very basic profile, which offers biographical information about birthplace, family, and notable roles/performances. "Did you know..." sidebars appear throughout ("Carly Rae was up for two Grammy Awards in 2013. She didn't win, but she was honored to be included!"). The bland texts are accessible to reluctant readers. Illustrated with glossy promotional-looking photos. Glos., ind. Review covers these Big Buddy Biographies titles: Adam Levine, Big Time Rush, Carly Rae Jepsen, and Chris Colfer.
