The book is entirely wholesome with nothing that I could find to object to in either verbal content or pictures.
The chapter headings are:
An Overnight Sensation
Family Ties
Word of Mouth
Country Life
A Rising Star
Dreams Come True
Good Friends
On the Road
Buzz
Snapshot
Important Words
Web Sites
Index
In addition, there is a glossary at the end of the book where words like accent, debut, and line dance are defined. There is also a "fact" sheet where bullet items tell us things like where Miley's home is and when she was born.
All in all, this book will appeal mostly to young children that like Hanna Montana television show. In appearance, this book follows the format of the other "Big Buddy Biographies" which means that nearly every other page there are full page photos, most of which show Miley with either her family, friends, or fans.
The Accelerated Reading Level (ATOS) for the book is 3.8 which means that the average entering 3rd Grader in the 8th month of school should be able to read it without getting frustrated by the vocabulary.
The principle value of books like this is that they promote reading. Both my daughter and son (8 and 6) read it. A good choice to get from the library.
