John’s Secret Dreams: The Life of John Lennon

John Lennon’s 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 will want to share with their children.
