Illustrations created using collage and water colors are visually appealing. Music lyrics and quotes are interspersed with free-verse poetry to tell the story of John Lennon's life. The book ends with a timeline of important dates in this musician's life. An interesting way to include 20th century history into a music class or social studies lesson. Teachers could bring music to entice students' interests of a controversial time in the world's history.
