Discover the life of Elton John, the piano wizard who rocketed to stardom with his music.

Growing up in the suburbs of London, young Elton John fell in love with music from an early age. It became a refuge for him, especially when his parents were arguing at home. After winning a scholarship to study classical music at the Royal Academy of Music, Elton spotted an advertisement in a newspaper from a record company looking for new talent. He decided to audition, and that chance meeting eventually led him to team up with lyricist Bernie Taupin. Together, they created some of the most memorable songs in music history.

Elton soon became a huge star, but behind the fame, he continued to face personal struggles. Over time, he learned the importance of being true to himself and found happiness with his husband, David. Elton was knighted by the Queen in recognition of his extraordinary contribution to music and his charity work, particularly his fight against AIDS. Today, Elton John remains a global icon, inspiring millions with his music, his courage and his determination to be himself.

This moving book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the musician's life.
