A review by jess_mango
Elton John by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara

4.0

Another adorable and informative entry into the Little People Big Dreams picture book series! In this book kids learn about a shy boy from England named Reggie. Reggie used music as an escape and was talented on the piano from an early age. When he was a young man, in the late 60's Reggie teamed up with a lyricist and the two created hit songs. Reggie created the stage name Elton John and bedecked himself in colorful glasses and creative outfits. He went on to become one of the top selling solo performers ever and was even knighted by the Queen of England.

This is another inspiring story for little kids who may feel a bit different and let's them know what success can be had if they follow their dreams. The illustrations are charming and colorful with lots of little details for kids to explore. There is a timeline at the end of the book that shows important moments in Elton John's career along with real life photos of him.

Thank you to the publisher for the review copy!
