The Stars of History: Charlie Chaplin is a great graphic novel following the famous actor.

I think this is a great way to introduce some famous people to those who haven't heard of them before. Charlie Chaplin's life is truly interesting to follow. The man grew up in poverty and became one of the most famous actors of all time. He's a legend, and this book shows some truly hilarious scenes in its illustrations to show you how amazing he is.

I wish there was more of his life. His life is very tumultuous and he wasn't always the nicest person. I felt like this story went into the good more than the bad. I also feel like not everything in the book was exampled in the best possible way. I wasn't sure who some of the people were, which made reading it a little annoying. But then some of this book explained too much what was going on when you literally have pictures showing you... It was odd.

I do think it's great to use graphic novels to share non-fiction tales though. Biographies being graphic novels is one of my new favourites!

Two out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and Europe Comics for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review. ( )
