Little People, BIG DREAMS | Elton John

How a boy who picked out tunes by ear on his grandmother's piano became the Rocket Man.

Little Elton could play a tune after hearing it once, which got him lessons at the Royal Academy. Years later he answered an advertisement and met a lyric-writing partner called Bernie Taupin, and the rest is one of the great runs in music history.

Told in simple sentences and made for reading aloud, with the dazzling outfits given their due. A lovely one for children who are just discovering that they can make music themselves.

• Part of the bestselling Little People, BIG DREAMS biography series
