BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

A quick look at the life and work of Lin-Manuel Miranda, the creator of the Broadway hits In the Heights and Hamilton: The Musical.

In 41 pages with lots of photographs, there is not much space to delve into the life and work ethic of Miranda’s rise.  It does give a nice overlook to how important music was to him at an early age and also the complicated history of getting Hamilton to the stage.  Enough th whet the appetite for a young fan.
