Book review: Abigail Breslin "If you've got a student reading below middle-grade level who enjoys superstar profiles, the Rising Stars series presents a solid … glance at performers who might hold reader interest … The tall trim emulates a magazine, and the format is simple: two or three short sentences on the left, typically about career beginnings, highlights, and awards, and a full-page photo on the right, mostly captured at red-carpet or onstage venues. … Readers of Abigail Breslin can thrill to images of the girl sporting various hairstyles and hair colors and learn how her big break came with the 2002 film Signs. … books like these serve a purpose in any library, and the multicultural subjects showcased here will add to the series' appeal."- Daniel Kraus, Booklist
