ABOUT THE BOOK

FASCINATING – The Life of Leonard Nimoy
Written by Richard Michelson, illustrated by Edel Rodriguez
Random House/Alfred A. Knopf Books for Young Readers
Fascinating is the story of how one boy followed his dreams to become one of the most beloved figures of our time. In Leonard Nimoy’s profound absence it is so lucky that his dear friend Richard Michelson has thought to bring us this richly illustrated account of his inspiring life. Together with Edel Rodriguez they beautifully capture some of the highlights of Leonard’s journey from immigrants son in Boston’s west end to one of the most iconic and recognizable characters in the world.
