A great information book about a well loved musician. Gives an interesting insight into the life of a legend. Would be great to use as an introduction to information books.

This book is told through story, poetry and song. The language flows well and fits the ebbs and flows that were John Lennon's life. This book would be a great resource into a study of the Beatles, John Lennon, or the history of music and rock and roll. (

John Lennon's influence on music and culture is legendary. He was a rebel, a genius, an innovator, and a peace activist. From a young age he dreamed of fame and fortune. When he achieved it as one of the Beatles, he recognized the need for a deeper meaning in life. His inner search for happiness shaped his life and brought new dimension to the world of rock 'n' roll. As a follow-up to their award-winning title, Martin's Big Words, Doreen Rappaport and Bryan Collier present John Lennon's life through a combination of narrative and song lyrics, cut-paper collage and watercolor art-capturing the energy and the essence of a man whose vision and creative genius continue to inspire people today.
