Checkerboard Biography Library: Children's Authors series.
These accessible but dry biographies provide introductory overviews of the lives and works of popular children's authors. Many engaging photos of the writers (along with some stock images) are included. There are some interesting facts, but a tighter structure (along with lists of the authors' works) would have helped organize the information. Glos., ind. Review covers these Checkerboard Biography Library: Children's Authors titles: Julia Alvarez, Christopher Paul Curtis, Nikki Grimes, and Jeff Kinney.
