  John was a clever boy but always in trouble. He couldnt be bothered with schoolwork he was only interested in one thing: pop music. He would dress up as his favourite pop stars and write his own songs, strumming away on his beloved guitar. With his hippy flares and little round sunglasses John became the most important member of the most famous band in the world The Beatles. Renowned for his exciting and scandalous life-style, he also somehow managed to find the time to promote peace and freedom throughout the world. But fame is a dangerous game
