When Paul Met Artie: The Story of Simon and Garfunkel

G. Neri

This picture-book biography follows Paul and Artie, two Jewish boys from Queens who meet while performing in their sixth-grade production of Alice in Wonderland. Music draws them together: Artie studies harmony, while the pair sing high and low parts. After early success and years apart, they reunite, become Simon and Garfunkel, and record “The Sound of Silence,” shaped in part by 1960s social movements.
