Starring Steven Spielberg
Starred Review
★ “The story adeptly links the boy’s fears and hardships to his most celebrated movies and focusing on the filmmaker’s own conviction that even the most fantastical of his stories is based on his own life…. Inspiring text and illustrations evoke the journey of an iconic filmmaker. Recommended for all collections.” – SLJ, starred review
“Scenes from a famous director’s childhood…. Panoramic, colorful, action-packed spreads give the book a cinematic feel…. Educational and entertaining.” – Kirkus Reviews
“Starring Steven Spielberg fills in young cineastes on important technical aspects of the art—from staging and editing to watching both popular movies and audience reactions with analytical eyes…. The dramatic lighting and vivid colors in Orback’s illustrations of the young Spielberg in various settings, usually with a camera, and some of his iconic characters are properly cinematic.” – Booklist
