Through the book, we are given a glance into Roan’s humble beginnings. We start in Missouri, taking a look at Roan’s upbringing that fostered her love of music. The book tracks her signing with Atlantic Records at 17 to chase her dreams of pop stardom. The “Casual” singer would then transition to Amusement Records and then to Island Records in May 2023. It was through Atlantic Records that Roan released “Pink Pony Club” in 2020, which was later included on her album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess. The track was inspired by Roan’s visit to The Abbey, a gay bar in West Hollywood, Los Angeles. Years after its initial release, song blew up on platforms like TikTok, cementing it as an anthem for the gay community.

From the single’s release, the book takes us through her success, from her epic music festival sets to releasing hits like “Hot To Go!” “Good Luck, Babe!” “Red Wine Supernova” and “Femininomenon.” Finally, we see Roan blossoming into a superstar, working with the likes of Hozier and Elton John. These days, Roan has become a part of the mainstream, known for rewriting the rules of pop music.

Illustrator Maria Lia Malandrino illustrated the biography colorfully, expressing Roan’s life through bold hues that really represent the musician. We’re given a cartoonish look at the performer’s head-turning ensembles and her support of the queer community through Malandrino’s lens. Author Cat Reynolds took to her Instagram to discuss the book, writing, “I can’t even put into words what a dream come true it was to write a Little Golden Book about one of my all-time favorite artists & someone who is a role model to so many queer people. I am so so so grateful/proud/excited.”

Little Golden Book has a slew of biographies to read through about top musicians today including Beyonce, Cher, Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga. Each book is illustrated with care by different artists. The books are catered towards children ages 4 to 8 but can make a great gift for the music fan in your life.
