Also good for middle grade or older readers who are struggling with literacy but interested in musical topics. (These kids are not going to be engaged by the Swiss Family Robinson - have you actually met any children, OP??) Musical teenagers of today are really, really into classic bands of the mid to late twentieth century. And this book places the Beatles in historical context, so there is learning in several domains going on.
