Elvis is King by Jonah Winter

Winter, Jonah. Elvis is King. Illustrated by Red Nose Studio. Schwartz & Wade. 40p. 2019. ISBN 9780399554704

Ages ( 8 and up)

Elvis Presley was the King of Rock and Roll, but it took years to achieve that status. Winter has chosen to write a biography from Elvis' birth to his first successful record.  Illustrated in three-dimensional figures and sets, this unique picture book shows the unfortunate childhood of Elvis, from being poor to the biggest star in American music. Without going into the more tragic nature of Elvis' life, this book is written for older elementary aged children. The text is more complicated than most picture books. Winter ends the book with authors note allowing for further reading into Elvis' life.
