Doreen Rappaport has a recent book called John's Secret Dreams: The Life of John Lennon. Hope this helps.

I am a MLIS student at UW-Milwaukee. I am interested in working as a children's librarian. Consequently, I've orientated as many of my projects as possible to that area. For my Collections Developement class, I'm to compile a list of possible books to purchase for a specific subject/area. I've decide to look for children's books that are biographies of anyone who was (or is) a musician, composer, or singer. Any genre or time period is fine. I have found a few, but your thoughts and suggestions would be enormously appreciated. Again, it could be Rock, Folk, Classical, or Jazz. I know there are a few books out there about John Lennon, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Bach, and Mozart. To my surprise I can't find one about the Beatles! Any recommendations of children's book bios on female singers would also be appreciated.
