Elvis Presley was called “the King of Rock and Roll.” His life and music transformed society in ways that are still felt to this day. With honesty, integrity, simplicity, and humor, What Every Child Needs To Know About Elvis Presley explains this pop icon to young children, helping them to understand the modern world and, more importantly, the adults in their lives. Written by three dads – a child expert, a healthcare analyst, and a veteran of the children’s publishing world – What Every Child Needs To Know About Elvis Presley is the book all true music lovers will want for their young children.
I have mixed reviews about the books in this series. This is one that I'm positive about. The Elvis Presley book is fun, informative, laid out pretty well and written in a child-accessible way. There's a couple pages I would've thrown out, but overall I'd share this with a child who wants to learn more about Elvis or just to start a conversation about music.
FYI: The more I think about it, this series of books would be perfect for someone who was just dropped into U.S. culture. I think it's perfect for adults who just need an intro to something, or to start a conversation. I would think they'd be great in ESL or citizenship classes.
Yes, this is a board book. Which means it's for little kids but it's about Elvis so of course I read it. I also loved that it was for little kids. It gave a good quick overview of Elvis. I love Elvis. I would definitely suggest this as something to read to your kids. Or nephews or nieces, et cetera. If I had children I would absolutely buy this for them and read it to them. I think it's essential for every music lover if they have children in their lives they want to start teaching about music. 4 quills.
