Gr 3-6-- Adams describes the comedienne's childhood in the New York City projects, her teenage motherhood, drug abuse, divorce, and ultimate success on television and in films. Quotes from Goldberg and from interviews with her are included, but no sources are listed. Throughout, her determination to rise above obstacles shines through. An explanation is also given as to how her own creative work directly reflects her attitudes and values. Crisp, full-color photographs show the subject in various stages of her life and career. With its open, readable format and abundant illustrations, this title will appeal to reluctant readers as well as to general audiences. --Cheryl Cufari, N. A.
