" readers can follow key moments in Presley's life
from his birth on the wrong side of the railroad tracks in the Deep South
to playing his first guitar in grade school
to being so nervous during a performance as a teenager that he starts shaking . . . and changes the world! Jonah Winter and Red Nose Studio have created a tour-de-force that captures a boy's loneliness and longing
along with the energy and excitement
passion
and raw talent that was Elvis Presley.
