As a huge Elton John fan, I really enjoyed this - obviously it is aimed at young children so the whole 'drugs, alcohol, bulimia' was slightly brushed aside.
However, the beautiful illustrations made up for it.
I like the fact they referred the same-sex marriage of Elton John, even though it's a book for children. i liked the fact they didn't shy away from the fact that John is gay.
I would have happily read on for another 100 pages!

The more of these books I read, the more I fall in love with them. The illustrations are always beautiful and it's so nice to get a small insight into the lives of this famous figures, in this case, Elton John. I'm so grateful to read these books and I can't wait for more.

Another absolutely lovely addition to this collection.
I really enjoy these books, despite being aimed at children. The illustrations are lovely and it is so nice to get to know about the worlds most well known people.
I definitely recommend and I can’t wait to read more books in this collection in the future.
I love the books in this series and always find something new in them and this is the 50th book in the series so far - I hope that it continues and the author continues to release them just as fast!
This was a book that focused on a famous pop star - Elton John we get to read a little about his early life and his adventures once he had become famous too which includes his charity work and the setting up of his own AIDS foundation.
Lovely images and another great addition to the series - 5 stars from me for this one
A really sweet beautifully illustrated look at a flamboyant life - really well handled LGBTQ rep and is very charming.......
