Music label Kidz Bop is introducing a YA book line with publisher Adams Media. The first three titles are due May 2011. The line features both fiction and non-fiction, and includes one book chronicling the life of the Kidz Bop Kids and one that serves as a rock star’s guide to starting a band. Each book contains a code to download a free Kidz Bop MP3 song.
Kidz Bop website users are invited to vote on potential story lines, upload original videos to be included in e-book offerings, and access additional material.
