(4) YA Women in the Arts series. While informative, these success stories about actress Bernhardt and fashion designer Chanel are repetitive and oversimplified, although neither shies away from the less attractive aspects of these glamorous Frenchwomen. The accounts are enriched with cultural context and illustrations and appended with lists of achievements. Chronology, reading list, websites. Bib., ind. [Review covers these Women in the Arts titles: Coco Chanel and Sarah Bernhardt.]
