Freddie Mercury by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara (4⭐️)

‘Freddie Mercury’ is a children’s nonfiction illustrated book about Freddie Mercury from birth to death. 

This is a great introduction to who Freddie Mercury was and gave me more insight into his childhood. It’s great that the author didn’t use negative connotations when bringing up his AIDS diagnosis. I think this series is great for kids to get to learn about many icons and gives enough information to know who someone is and why they were famous without overloading people with a bunch of facts. If they like the person, they can just go onto further research them and this also gives you a book recommendation at the end if you do want to learn more about Freddie. And as always, I loved the illustrations!
