There is a very cool children's book coming out next month.
Bev Vincent, who had previously written an extensive title all about Stephen King, is set to release a book once again focusing on King, but - this time - doing so for a younger audience.
Stephen King: His Life, Work and Influences does exactly what the title suggests. Vincent writes a brief biography on the author and then takes the reader through King's career.
As you'd expect, a lot of King's famous works are highlighted. These range from the earliest novels right through to King's modern stories.
There are tons of interesting facts for children to read alongside the detail about the author's printed work as well as the movies and TV shows which spun from them.
I loved the amount of pictures in this book. There are many I hadn't seen before. So, I suppose, it could be said this book satisfied an adult King fan as well.
I recommend the book for all. Especially the target audience because I know - without a shadow of a doubt - I would have loved this book even more had I been a young reader looking for a gateway into the world of Stephen King.
⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
