Before she was an international superstar and feminist icon, Beyoncé was
a girl from Texas who loved to sing and dance. As a member of Destiny's
Child, she climbed the charts and became a member of one of the most
famous musical groups in history. This launched Beyoncé into her solo
career, and since then, she's become an unstoppable force in music and
pop culture. She has created countless hits, including "Crazy in Love,"
"Single Ladies," and "Formation." Beyond music, she is a successful
businesswoman and activist who helps bring issues of race and gender
into the global conversation. Empowering and inspirational, Beyoncé
tells the story of the woman who showed that girls can run the world. It
includes a timeline, glossary, and index.
