In each standard-issue biography, readers are introduced to the celebrity or band's early life and family, career, achievements, business ventures, and charitable works. The cheerful texts are peppered with gratuitous exclamation points ("Taylor spent two years writing songs for 1989!") and accompanied by stock photos and "Did You Know?" boxes. There are seven other spring 2016 books in this series. Glos., ind. Review covers the following Big Buddy Pop Biographies: 5 Seconds of Summer, Justin Timberlake, Kate Middleton, Pharrell Williams, and Taylor Swift.
