A father realizes that he's not connecting to his eight-year-old son. (The boy leaves his image out of a family drawings.) But once his son begins to listen to the Beatles, they begin to talk about the Fab Four and slowly start opening up and talking to each other in a different way. The book ends with a trip to England to visit Beatle tourist sites. Nicely done memoir.

The book was very interesting in that it covered a lot of neat information about the Beatles in an easy-to-read, everyday-conversation kind of style. The stories of Sam and his dad were nice.
