Pop Culture Bios series.
Each volume in this series superficially discusses the featured young celebrity's childhood, early projects, rise to current stardom, and, when applicable, causes (e.g., Watson's free-trade clothing line; Wilson's focus on positive body image). Sidebars define unfamiliar lingo and offer "favs," "peeves," and other trivia. Brightly colored layouts and copious stock photos emphasize the text's casual, teenybopper-magazine tone. Reading list, websites. Ind. Review covers these Pop Culture Bios titles: Emma Watson, Logan Lerman, Nicholas Hoult, Emma Watson, Jaden Smith, and Rebel Wilson.
