Sinopse

An inside look at the early lives of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, This Boy is a perfect book for any young listener embracing their inner Beatlemania.

Meant for younger listeners, This Boy is a gripping biography of two musical legends. Beginning with their births during World War II England and ending with their famous performance on The Ed Sullivan Show, this book is action packed from beginning to end. Whether you are a lifelong Beatles fan or new to their music, this book is an excellent source of Beatles lore that is relatively unknown.

With expert research from Ilene Cooper, this book will serve as not only an interesting biography of two significant historical figures, but also a fun story about rock and roll and how the lives of two people can change the world.

Resumo da Crítica

An impressive achievement… “This Boy” is a wonderful primer for the kind of kid who is nuts enough about music to want to grasp the social context in which it was made.”—The New York Times

*"Illuminating reading for dreamers and doers already attuned to beats of their own."—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

★ “Cooper masterfully weaves the very different but overlapping lives of [Lennon and ­McCartney]…Lennon’s prickly personality and wild wordplay, compounded by his chaotic family life, is contrasted with McCartney’s loving extended family and his meticulous dedication to craft…An amazing trove of contemporaneous snapshots of the boys and their milieu round out the compelling narrative…A WWII book, a rock ‘n’ roll book, a buddy adventure…Highly recommended for middle graders and middle schoolers.”—School Library Journal, starred review
