From Amazon:

A stunning, full-colour volume of prose, lyrics and images relating to the life of the man who forever changed popular culture with his suggestion that Britain 'give peace a chance'.

John Lennon's influence on music and culture is legendary. From a young age, he dreamed of fame and fortune - when he achieved it as one of The Beatles, he recognised the need for a deeper meaning. His inner search for happiness shaped both his own life and the wider world of rock 'n' roll. Slogans coined by him are to be found throughout the pop-cultural lexicon, from 'give peace a chance' to 'war is over… if you want it.'

Here, award-winning author and illustrator team Doreen Rappaport and Bryan Collier present his life through a combination of narrative and song lyrics, cut-paper collage and watercolour art - capturing the energy and the essence of a man who this generation of parents won't forget and sharing it with noughties children.
