The Girl Who Became A Beatle
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah! When Regina Bloomsbury’s band, the Caverns, breaks up, she thinks it’s all over. But then, late one night, Regina MAKES A WISH that she could be as famous as the Beatles. The next day, Regina wakes up to find that the Caverns are not just as famous as the Beatles, they have replaced them in history!
Regina is suddenly living like a rock star, and loving it. There are talk shows, music videos, and live concerts with thousands of screaming fans. And Regina is the star of it all. But as fame starts to get the better of Regina, her ‘fairy godmother’ informs her that she has ten days to make a life-altering decision. Does she want to replace the Beatles forever?
Here is a rocking novel about musical stardom, Hollywood, and, above all… learning to believe in yourself.
Reviews:
As in his debut novel, Killer Pizza, Taylor has hold of an undeniably clever concept. – PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
I loved this book. What could have been a trite send-up of celebrity becomes in Taylor’s funny, swift prose, a very moving, inventive, and deep look at how we decide who we are. There’s not one dull page in here. Whether you’re a teen reader or not, this is a terrific book–great imagination, great heart. – AMAZON REVIEW BY ‘LEWIS’
Regina’s relationship with her father–particularly as it is threatened by the appearance of her estranged mother–and her discovery of other famous bands that were living through “replacements” provide depth to the narrative. – SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
