This is the second book I have read in the "Work It, Girl" series and I thoroughly enjoyed it (just as much as the first on JK Rowling). The format was the same, chapters laying out Oprah's story, mixed in with quotes and cool illustrations. I would absolutely recommend this to any child as Oprah is an inspiration and there are a lot of life lessons to be learned from her life. I really hope another book in the series comes out soon!

Thank you to Netgalley, Caroline Moss and Quarto Publishing Group - Frances Lincoln Childrens for the opportunity to read and provide an honest review of the second book in this series that I have read!

The ARC of this book was provided by the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

"Work it, girl" is a new series of empowering biographies featuring modern women.
These biographies are short yet detailed: that’s because they’re books for children, so it’s totally understandable.
I think they are a very smart and wonderful way to introduce little children to such important figures.
This one is about Oprah, one of most influential and powerful women in the whole world.
Here, we follow her life since she was a little poor girl 'till her success thanks to "The Oprah Winfrey Show".
I know Oprah and I've come to admire her, but I knew little about her poor and difficult childhood and all the struggles she endured to become who she is today.
Therefore, this book was definetely a good way to know more about this incredible woman in an entertaining way thanks to the writing style and the illustrations, which are done with cut paper and are really beautiful and original.
Despite of all the difficulties, she never gave up and kept fighting for her dream.
Reading about her gave me goosebumps. She's an absolutely incredibile, strong, generous and kind woman.
I think reading about her resilience and kindness may have a good influence on kids, and also adults.

Thank you for the opportunity bto review this!
I really enjoyed and felt inspired by Oprah's story.
Great book to give to teenagers, to learn to follow one"s dreams.
I loved the 10 advices that were at the end.

This is one of two books in what I expect will be a series, of how women who seem to have it all, now, started out. How they overcame all that life threw at them, and went on to rule. The other book is about J.K Rowling. This one, about Oprah, falls the same path.

Also the same, are the illustrations, which are fantastic, done with cut paper.

This is a good way to introduce young readers to biographies that are about contemporary people.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

A good book with unique pictures. Lots of detailed information about an inspirational woman! I like that this book goes in depth - definitely meant for upper elementary aged children and up.

A book about a woman who changed the way for females everywhere. This is a great book for young people, the information is in depth but very easy to understand. This was a great read and as an adult even I enjoyed it.

A sweet and charming little book about one of the most important figures of recent history. I can't wait for little girls to read these books and realise just how incredible women can be and that they can be anything they want to be.

I particularly liked this book as it is written with a good depth of detail which is ideal for upper KS2 classes. The chaptered format makes it a longer, more engaging read and the papercut style of illustrations are visually attractive too.

Another in the series of influential, strong and powerful women. A great inspiration and her story will encourage many others. A great book for teaching kids about the wonderful women we have that inspire us and help change the world

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

Another stunning edition and biography. Oprah is an inspiration and this book brings her difficult and important life to the next generation:
The message is clear, the illustrations stunning and a must read for any young one in your life.
