About this title

Synopsis

FOR HIS EIGHTH birthday, Mark Alan Stamatyâ s parents gave him his very own radio. Little did his mother realize that that innocent-looking plastic box would one day be the gateway for a new kind of sound that would â rockâ her nearly out of her mind. . . .

Mark first heard the howling thunder of Elvis Presley singing â Hound Dogâ on the radio one lazy day and his life was forever changed. Soon he was styling his hair like the King and practicing his dance moves with a tennis racket as his pretend guitar in front o f the mirror. But his mother lived in constant fear that her sonâ s new love of rock â nâ roll would turn him into a juvenile delinquent. Could Markâ s performance at his Cub Scout talent show change her mind?
