      Gr 6 Up-Top hip-hop stars are profiled in these eye-catching, photo-filled biographies written at a fourth-grade reading level. Each entry in the series features information on the particular musical style of the artist and describes their childhood and family life, struggles they had to overcome on the path to superstardom, their signature fashion and inspirations, how they give back to their communities, and any relevant rivalries in the hip-hop world. Highlighted vocabulary words are defined in a glossary at the back. Though these books may get dated rather quickly, the high-interest subject matter and slick design will ensure they circulate widely in a short period of time.
