Who Is Taylor Swift? was released on April 2 and quickly shot to the top of Amazon’s best-selling children’s biographies chart. The book tells the story of Swift’s rise to fame, from her small-town beginnings in Pennsylvania, to her move to Nashville, to her travels touring around the globe. Along the way, it also tracks her famous albums, lyrics, rumored romances and reported feuds (though there’s no more “bad blood” to speak of).
Though it’s written for children ages 8-12, the new book is suitable for fans of all ages, and makes a great gift idea too.
