These Taylor Swift Biographies and Tie-In Books Are Fun for All Ages

One of the most fun parts of parenting is watching kids get really excited about their favorite people and things. For parents of super-Swifties, this means learning an awful lot about America’s favorite musical superstar. 

By now, you’ve probably memorized the lyrics to every song and have Taylor Swift’s full discography engraved in your mind. But there’s one Taylor fact you almost certainly didn’t know: the pop megastar is the subject of multiple biographies geared toward kids, ranging from first grade through the tween years. Any one of them could be your young readers’ next favorite book. 

Best Books for Taylor Swift Superfans

Little Swifties will love Taylor Swift: Her Story: Updated Fan Edition, a full-color, photo-packed biography that’s perfect for fans who have just learned to read. This children’s book traces the star’s musical journey from her beginnings as a young girl with a dream of sharing her music with the world to the latest info about her albums, collabs, and awards. There’s even info about her engagement to football star Travis Kelce. 

Our next book, Taylor Swift: All Access, is aimed at slightly older children (think age 7 to 10). But even bigger kids love a good picture book, especially when it’s about their favorite star, and this one title doesn’t disappoint. TayTay fans will find eight pages of full-color photos, as well as all the inside scoop on Taylor’s favorite things, from food and fan moments to lyrics and fellow musicians. 

You’ll also find trivia from every era of her musical journey from country singer to global pop sensation. For instance, did you know that Taylor once dreamed of being a Broadway star? (Maybe that’s her next act!)

Young readers who can’t get enough Taylor facts will adore Taylor Swift: Fact & Photo File: Updated Edition. In addition to 15 huge photos of Taylor Swift, this children’s book is chock-full of insights into her life and career. You’ll find a ranking of Taylor’s coolest album announcements, eight ways she has surprised her fans, and her top 10 love quotes. (Example: “It’s important to be confident in who you are, because the best thing you can bring to a relationship is a whole person.”)

Taylor Tie-Ins for Tweens

Got a Swiftie who’s aged out of picture books and fun facts? The next generation of Taylor media is complex, creative, and full of fun adventures. The Taylors, a series of graphic novels from New York Times best-selling author Jen Calonita, features four best friends who all happened to be named Taylor… and who love Taylor Swift. 

Start with the first book in the series, which shares the Taylors’ quest to score tickets for their musical heroine’s Eras tour, then follow along as they navigate the transition to high school, crushes and relationships, and maintaining their friendships even when they’re (temporarily) on different continents.
