The Beatles’ ‘All You Need is Love’ Becoming A Children’s Picture Book
Two new children’s books are set to add pictures to the lyrics of The Beatles’ John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
Simon & Schuster Children’s Publishing announced that it will publish two books aimed at kids re-imagining songs by the Beatles as picture stories. The series will begin with the band’s iconic hit “All You Need Is Love,” and will feature illustrations by Marc Rosenthal.
“This timeless song rings true now more than ever,” said Valerie Garfield, Vice President and Publisher of Little Simon in a statement. “We feel there is always a market for books about hope, and John Lennon and Paul McCartney have written songs that resonate with parents and children who want to look at the world with hope and love.”
The first book is set for release in January 2019 via the imprint Little Simon. The song featured and release date of the second book will be announced at a future date.
