Drake

Hip-Hop Headliners

by Robert Kennedy

Actor and singer Drake is a double threat, as he's proven his talent in both arenas. In recent years, Drake has risen to the top of the charts with his smooth voice and clever lyrics. In this book filled with onstage photographs, readers will learn how a teenager became a successful TV actor and how an actor took the hip-hop world by storm. Drake--or Drizzy as he's often called--has earned the respect of artists such as Jay-Z and Kanye West.

Reviews

[Jaime · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book has a picture on one page and very little, large-print writing on the other side. This would be great for a first biography for an elementary school student, but there is very little information and writing. I think it is too low-level for middle school. Each page is a different “chapter” if you go by the table of contents and they cover early life, how he was discovered and his life since taking the stage. Not a bad book for elementary, but I think it would be way too low for my kiddos.
