Book Reviews of Shakira: Woman Full of Grace
Book Review: this is about shakira!
Summary: 4 Stars
yeah, it is! there's not a bunch about columbia, it's about shakira! you get the info about her childhood, little known facts(she used to want to be an astronaut, did you know that?) people who didn't believe in her(her music teacher told her she had a voice like a goat) and info about her first two albums. The reason I give this 4 stars is because of the lack of photos-we could have some childhood photos here! Other than that, don't listen to the other guy, this book is worth a look!
Summary of Shakira: Woman Full of Grace
Shakira's crossover success has been predicted for years by those in the know. She landed her first record deal when she was a mere thirteen years old, recorded her second album at fifteen, and starred in a popular soap opera in her native Colombia. She was only nineteen when her third album, Pies descalzos (Barefoot), made her the bestselling female rock star in Latin America. Though her fourth album, Dónde están los ladrones? (Where Are the Thieves?), went platinum eight times in the U.S., it was her electrifying performance at the first annual Latin Grammys that captured the attention of the nation.Despite finding great success at such a young age, twenty-four-year-old Shakira remains remarkably balanced, confounding the usual stereotypes associated with rock stars. She is a devout Catholic, lives with her parents, and travels everywhere with them. She is one of those rare stars who combine talent, charisma, and boldness, and at the same time keep their feet firmly planted on the ground.
For the most exciting singer-songwriter to come out of Latin America since Ricky Martin, the possibilities are endless. For the millions who already buy her albums, Shakira represents the voice of a new generation.
