Taylor Swift: Teardrops and Guitars
Taylor Swift is the girl from nowhere – and the girl who has gone on to conquer the world.
Today she can sell out a whole stadium in less than sixty seconds.
She has four best-selling albums and six Grammy Awards under her belt.
And from Love Story and You Belong With Me to We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together and I Knew You Were Trouble, Taylor Swift is writing the soundtrack for the lives of a whole generation.
But just how has Taylor Swift achieved so much, so young? And how high a price has she paid for her incredible success?
This unique biography goes right back to the beaches of New Jersey to find out. It discovers a tiny girl singing to strangers at just three-years-old. It finds an eight-year-old in Pennsylvania who was shunned at school and spent too many long, sad days alone. And it follows an eleven-year-old poet in Nashville – a poet who had the courage to change country music forever.
Along the way 'Taylor Swift: Teardrops and Guitars' reveals the real Taylor Swift – the worrier and the writer who has become the hardest-working pop star in the world.
It reveals someone who is fiercely loyal – and is surrounded by the same people today as she was at the start. Far from the tabloid gossip about boyfriends and failed love affairs it also discovers a grown-up soul – and someone who has already given more to charity than most celebrities twice her age.
'Taylor Swift: Teardrops and Guitars' is essential reading for Taylor’s millions of fans. And by examining the exact route Taylor took to fame – and the toll it has sometimes taken – it’s a must-read book for anyone who wants to know how to succeed in today’s ever-changing music business.
Neil Simpson is a writer and journalist, and the best-selling author of 'Adele: To Make You Feel Her Love'.

We are all Taylor Swift Fans at my house. I picked this freebie up from Amazon for my daughter to read. Before I gave it to her I read through this ebook which only took about 20 minutes or so. There is nothing new here if you are a fan of Taylor Swift.
Lots of speculation on the author's part and everything you can already read online with the celebrity websites,etc. The good thing about this is that the ebook provides the same information all in one place. Too bad there weren't any photos.

Hard work, determination, persistence, talent and luck all combined made Taylor a household name. This short look into her life pinpoints that in a way that is informative and to the point.
