Shake, Rattle, and Roll: The Founders of Rock and Roll

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Laura Levine. Each of fourteen early rock-and-roll musicians is briefly described in a one-page profile and a mixed-media portrait of the person--a flat painting in a hip, folk-art-like, naive style. The text introduces the subject, provides basic biographical information, and describes the person's contributions to the genre. Among the rock-and-roll greats included are Buddy Holly, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry, LaVern Baker, and Wanda Jackson.
