By the time Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was 24 years old, he'd already shown the world how to play and lead like a superstar. After achieving early success playing college football and baseball, Mahomes has become an NFL trendsetter and record breaker, becoming only one of four African American quarterbacks to win an All-Pro Most Valuable Player Award. Eye-catching photographs, biographical timelines, and a detailed narrative tell the story of how this Texas-born athlete went on to become a Super Bowl champion.

      Gr 1-3-Young fans will appreciate these titles featuring five popular Black entertainers and one Black athlete. Basic information for each is provided: when they were born, where they attended school, honors and accolades they achieved. Chadwick Boseman was an actor who portrayed Jackie Robinson and Thurgood Marshall in films, Lizzo plays the flute in addition to her singing, Tessa Thompson attended Santa Monica College, Donald Glover won four Grammy awards in 2019, Zendaya appeared on Dancing with the Stars, and Patrick Mahomes led Kansas City to their first Super Bowl championship in 50 years. Except for mention of various philanthropic interests, little information is provided on the stars' personal lives. However, the targeted audience will not care as the many color photographs will be the prime attraction. The narratives themselves are upbeat and positive in nature. VERDICT Due to the popularity of the subjects among young people, these books should circulate well in school and public libraries and should be considered.
