Product Description

Carrie Underwood is the small town girl who has taken America by storm. But the road to success from her home town of Checotah, Oklahoma, to her emergence as 2005s American Idol wasn't a smooth one. As a young girl, music was her life, and Underwood dreamed of becoming a professional singer. But her early attempts to establish a career were met with disappointment and Carrie left music behind—until friends and family encouraged her to audition for American Idol. The story of how Carrie Underwood made her dreams come true while winning the hearts of fans everywhere is not only uplifting but an inspiring reminder of how you should always follow your dreams.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's A Great Children's Book On A Rising Star., December 15, 2005
By Matt Marvis (Grapevine, TX) - See all my reviews
This is an outstanding children's book geared to ages 7-12 not an adult fan book. My 9 year old daughter loved learning about the new American Idol star in this up-to-date library book. It's not boring it is written for children.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is for good4nene "vernisa", June 11, 2006
I must first acknowledge that the book is worthy of reading. Secondly, good4nene "vernisa" needs to proofread before posting comments. His/her posting of "I thought the book was rather boring.i was so dissapointed with what i read.however i think her real biography should be done alot later on in her career.it was just to soon." As a teacher, I would have written "I thought the book was rather boring. I was so disappointed with what I read. However, I think her real biography should be written later in her career. It was just too soon." Regardless of the quality of Vernisa's writing, Carrie has demonstrated her many talents.
