Synopsis
Elizabeth Partridge, winner of the Boston Globe-Horn Book Nonfiction award for THIS LAND WAS MADE FOR YOU AND ME: THE LIFE AND SONGS OF WOODY GUTHRIE, has created a clear, candid examination of John Lennon's life story widely praised for not sparing the unpleasant details. The book is separated into 12 different chapters that chronicle each period of his life; Lennon's difficult childhood and teen years, his art school experiences, and his early years exploring rock & roll are just a few of the topics covered from the years before the superstardom of the Beatles. Accompanied by B&W photographs. A 2006 Michael L. Printz Honor Book. Both a Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews Best Children's Book of 2005.

Publisher's Note
An award-winning biographer paints a vivid picture of John Lennon's life, from his tumultuous childhood in London to his rock-n-roll career writing, recording, and performing music with the Beatles, revealing how he struggled to come to terms with fame, marriage, and his artistic mind.

Industry reviews
"As she did for Woody Guthrie in THIS LAND WAS MADE FOR YOU AND ME, Partridge here presents a captivating portrait of a legendary musician...[T]his well-researched photobiography includes copious quotations from Lennon and his colleagues...paired with Partridge's crisp reporting, the quotes offer a spontaneous and incisive look at Lennon's life."
Publishers Weekly  (10/03/2005)

"YAs will find the nonjudgmental tone refreshing, and those drawn by the rock-music theme will admire Partridge's sensitive analysis of the Beatles' creative output. Dynamic design distinguishes the book inside and out, from the eye-catching size and shape that cleverly mimics an old vinyl album cover to the abundant archival photos within."
Booklist  (10/01/2005)

"[An] excellent photographic biography...Though easy to read and full of simple declaratives, this isn't a particularly sanitized version of Lennon's life. Partridge cites Lennon's own expletives when needed, and she presents the 1960s, in gorgeous photos and words, without resorting to cliches about paisley prints, peace marches and psychedelia."
New York Times Book Review - Meg Wolitzer (11/13/2005)

"Given the massive amount written about the Beatles, separating the man from the myth is a huge challenge, superbly accomplished here, with great attention to documentation."
