This volume of the series is decently done. We get the basic overlay of Prince and his life. I love how this book celebrates his uniqueness and his belief in the masculine and feminine converging. One of the things that’s very important to Prince’s stories are the heartache, and none of that is in here. While they do get into the fact that he was a symbol, there’s nothing about why, and this could be done with a one sentence explanation. And I wish that this book series didn’t always look at just the good but admitted that these wonderful powerful people also had bad times. ( )

If you're looking for a fun way to introduce your favourite musician to your young ones, grab Prince by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara! I absolutely love this series and have to keep sharing it, seriously!

I love this non-fiction, picture book series that introduces famous people to young readers. This book combines fantastic illustrations with a positive, family friendly story about Prince! It's a fun, quick read that will let you learn a few new things while enjoying non-fiction with your kiddos.

He was a young boy born to a musician, and he picked up his Father's stage name (I did not know that!). Eventually he becomes one of the world's most famous musicians with the coolest purple outfits around.

My only critique is that the illustrations in this book are less than a lot of the other books. The style was kinda goofy and too child-like for me. They're still okay, but some of the other books had better.

Four out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review. ( )
