5.0 out of 5 stars If you love Ricky, you'll love this book, June 21, 1999

By A Customer

If you are a die hard fan of Ricky Martin this is one book you should definitely get your hands on. The book is filled with fabulous pictures of the singer from his hey days in the teen group Menudo through his years as the latin heart throb in General Hospital and all the way to the international mega star he is today. Besides the great pictures what I liked the most about his book was the way it was written, nice and simple and with a positive outlook all the way. A few things you should definitely look at when you buy this book are the trivia tid bits and the time line which are included. The quick information you learn here will make you seem like Ricky's number one fan. I truly recommend this book as a gift to anyone from the age of 10-100.
