this book is amazing!!!!!!! I looooove the jonas brothers sooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are three truly amazing guys! I have actually been to one of there concerts! This book tells all about their lives and their family, with a ton of pictures! This is the best book that i have ever read! I think that every JB fan should buy this book! It really is an incredible book!

This is a gorgeous book, FULL of photos and inside scoops about the Jonas Brothers. It is a large hardbound book, like a coffee table book, and can be displayed with your Jonas Brothers collection of memorabilia.

Terrific gift for a birthday, Christmas, or other holiday. Fun for girls to read together at a slumber party too. Highly recommended for fans! Written for preteens and teens. This probably won't sell out, but it is definitely one of the HOT gifts of the year for young girls.

If you are a hardcore Jonas fan then you MUST HAVE this book.

I'm from Australia and because they dont sell it over here yet, i ordered it from here and it only took a few weeks to get to me just in time for my chrissy present.
But i had a little sneak peek. or a big one.

ITS AMAZING. I love how it is written by the boys themselves. There is a section on each of the boys, with absolutely beautiful photos that i had never seen before. Joe's polaroids are cute, Kevins guitar-spin photos are awesome and Nicks section on diabetes is sad yet inspirational.

This book gives a great insight into what the Jonas Brothers do everyday, and just why they love it so much.
I HIGHLY recommend it (: (: (:

I purchased this book for my 15yr old daughter for Christmas. She's a huge Jonas Brothers fan and I am very pleased with it. So pleased I also purchased one for her best friend, who is also a huge fan of theirs. The pictures and information in it is wonderful. Definitely a great gift or purchase for a Jonas Brother fan.

I have two daughters who are huge fans of the Jonas Brothers and this book was certainly a must have for them. I ordered my copies and had a quick look at the book. I was impressed with the quality of the pictures and commentary. It certainly gives a behind the scenes view of the tour. The book is bound in a hard cover and has huge pages and pictures of all things Jonas. My daughters attended their concert in West Palm Beach, Florida and this book will definitely help them relive those memories.
I highly recommend this book for any parent, grand parent, aunt, uncle, or friend of someone who loves the Jonas Brothers. Buy this as a present and they will love you for it!

I really liked the book and even though I am a lot older than 20 I enjoy their music. It was nice to get some background information on the family and how they started. I hope they continue to do their music. But I know they are working in a hard environment with being around drugs and the like.

My first experience with amazon, and i'm really surprised. The comunication was excellent, it was delivered just in time, and the book is really great. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Great book for the Jonas Brothers fan. My daughter will love it on Christmas a.m. Lots of great pics!

I bought this book for my little girl as a xmas present.Not knowing anything about the band i found this really interesting with loads of pictures.I live in the UK and thanks to amazon i recieved this with plenty of time to spare!!

In the mood for some light reading, I picked up Burning Up: On Tour with the Jonas Brothers. The book covers the highlight of the bands career in 2007. When it was first sold at Wal-Mart you would have had to pay the full $21.99 for it, but now in 2011 my sister found the same book for a flat rate of $3.00. Good deal. I had expected the book to contain nothing but pictures, but I was surprised to find legitimate bio pieces. Joe and Nick Jonas had plenty of background information of themselves, while Kevin Jonas lacked a lot of detail. From what I read I can conclude that Joe Jonas is my favorite Jonas brother. The brothers mention playing at the Texas State Fair. It seems as though all artists are overwhelmed or surprised when they come to perform in Texas. Always expect a big crowd from Texas. Expect the heat as well, especially in the summer. Then the Brothers mention their memorable performance at the American Music Awards. I don't guilt Joe for falling. It was inevitable. The special plate glass prop was never done before and was a new concept to perform with. He handled the situation well when he got back up. Throughout the book, sleep seems to be scarce or greatly appreciated by the band. I can only imagine how tiresome being on tour is. Aside from touring they have to attend interviews, talk shows, and parades. These events always take place early in the morning. They participated in the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade twice. I'm surprised the book hardly mentions the band's mother. There is a brief paragraph where Joe says his mother tells him to put on his jacket because of the cold weather. Joe disobeys his mother and removes the jacket because he rather look good for pictures. Tut-Tut. The brothers visited the White House when it was under the Bush Administration. Not a lot is mentioned of the events and there wasn't a picture with President Bush anywhere. There are a lot of good photo stills exhibiting the band's talent of acrobatic type moves on stage. There is also a section on the band's music writing process and what they do to get prepared for the stage. The Jonas Brothers are very humble when talking about fans. They even talk about Jonas family dynamics and how they put their family above all else. The fame did not stray their relationship. The book ends with a description of their last concert of their tour in Rutherford, New Jersey. "We had truly achieved a moment in our career that could never be duplicated or repeated. That night in New Jersey was the end of our tour..." stated the brothers. I'm actually sad that the possibility of the Jonas Brothers ever getting together for a tour again is unlikely. I foresaw the permanent end of the band's career when Kevin Jonas got married. My personal opinion is that Kevin got married too young, but I assume that the band wouldn't have continued to produce music anymore anyway, and probably used the marriage as a justification for discontinuing. Anyhow, they were very successful during their run and I enjoyed watching them over the course of their career. I hope to hear of the Jonas Brothers again soon.
