What worked: As a former first-grade teacher, I love Little Golden Books. These books are perfect for both school and home libraries. These biographies are a great start to learning about popular celebrities and other well-known figures.

In this biography readers learn about Oprah Winfrey's beginnings that start in Mississippi as a child growing up on her grandmother's farm. She also loved to read and this love helps her later in her life.

Some fun facts:

Oprah won the Miss Fire Preventon beauty pageant at age seventeen.

She became a news anchor on television while attending Tennessee State University.

She was Nashville's first Black female news anchor.

The illustrations are colorful and engaging.

Great bite-size info on celebrities and other important figures. Perfect for children who want to learn more about Oprah Winfrey's life.
