Description
'A thing of beauty.' - STYLIST
Discover how Beyonce became a superstar singer and entrepreneur in this true story of her life. Then, learn 10 key lessons from her work.
When Beyonce was a little girl, she was shy. But one dance class changed the course of her life, when her teacher recognised her singing ability and star talent.
After years of working hard, rehearsing, and practising, Beyonce hit the big time with Destiny's Child. The rest was history (and a lot more hard work).
Find out what makes Queen Bey tick, what inspires her and what motivates her. Learn about her passion for activism - right up-to-date with her support for Black Lives Matter.

Each of these vibrantly illustrated books tells the story of a remarkable woman in 10 chapters that highlight transformative moments in her life, following the ups and downs that she faced on her road to success. At the end, 10 key lessons show what you can learn from these moments, and self-reflectionquestions help you apply these lessons to your own life.
Brightly coloured photo illustrations of 3D cut paper artwork featuring inspiring quotes from these amazing women bring their stories to vivid life.
