Told in the voice of its 13-year-old author, \u003ci\u003eFab 4 Mania\u003c\/i\u003e is a facsimile of the diary that she kept throughout 1965, and is brimming with rich period details, humor, and insight. It’s a look into the life of a teenager from a working-class family whose love of music awakens her senses and opens her up to the world beyond that of small-town Fox Lake, Illinois. It is also about the Beatles, as seen through the eyes of a young, giddy teenager and a reflective, adult artist, and the joy the band gives.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eBorn in Chicago in the 1950s, \u003cb\u003eCarol Tyler\u003c\/b\u003e is a cartoonist who bridged underground and alternative comics with her debut in \u003ci\u003eWeirdo\u003c\/i\u003e magazine in 1987: collections such as \u003ci\u003eThe Job Thing\u003c\/i\u003e (1993) and \u003ci\u003eLate Bloomer\u003c\/i\u003e (2005) followed.
