About this listen
The Beatles
John Lennon’s mom called him “Stinker” because he farted so much! Paul McCartney’s car was wrecked by chickens!
George Harrison once had his friend’s parent sign his bad report card! Ringo Starr’s grandma thought he was possessed by witches!
Wait! What?
Siblings Paige and Turner have collected the most unusual and surprising facts about these rock stars, from their childhoods and early days as musicians to the formation of the Beatles and their skyrocketing journey to become the greatest band in the world.
Narrated by the two spirited siblings, Wait! What? The Beatles Couldn’t Read Music? is an authoritative, accessible, and one-of-a-kind biography infused with Dan Gutman’s signature sense of humor.
