*Signed Copies by Yas Imamura!* While Supplies Last A stunning picture book biography in lyrical, poignant prose about Yoko Ono—a brilliant musician and one of the creative minds behind the iconic song “Imagine” by John Lennon.Yoko Ono has been called many things: Bold. Confrontational. Controversial. Artist. Musician. Witch.But she has always been, first and foremost, Yoko: a girl who used her imagination to escape the horrors of World War II, and then a woman who used that same gift to find peace after an act of unfathomable violence.This is a story of a singular soul: an artist, musician, and writer who has always innovated beyond the limits of the accepted, whose brilliance cannot be overshadowed, and whose imagination has been truly revolutionary.

I’m honored to be this month’s 12×12 featured author and talk about something that sounds maniacally overconfident: how to write like a rock star. When I shared news of my debut, HOW TO BE A ROCK STAR (illustrated by Daniel Duncan) with an acquaintance at dinner, I was flummoxed by her first question: “Are you […]
