In the book "Holes" by Louis Sachar, the "King of Rock and Roll" refers to Elvis Presley. His real name is Elvis Aaron Presley. The character in the story who idolizes him is called "Caveman," and he learns about the significance of Elvis through the family's history.
The book is worth 4 points. The reading level is 4.4. The author is Kate William.
yes, Alice has a book called Golf Monster. It is half about golf and half about his career in rock and roll. It is a great book if you are into Alice Cooper. I am into his music and I love golf, but you do not need to enjoy golf to read this book.

No one really "founded" rock and roll. Although difficult to nail down to an exact year, it is safe to say that rock and roll began in the early fifties and was a mixture of black and white musical traditions. What began in the early fifties was an aggressive, sexual noise that arose from the beat of the music. The beat was bigger and louder than any beat before it and the reason was simple--electric guitars. If one was to try to nail down a year and an artist, it would undoubtably be Ike Turner's 1951 recording of Rocket 88. Ike Turner's song was the second biggest hit single in 1951. It was a mixture of jump blues, swing combo music and a back beat. Shortly thereafter, in early 1954, master 'Shout Blues' artist Big Joe Turner recorded the prototypical twelve bar blues-form rock and roll song "Shake, Rattle and Roll." This song was a high point for Big Joe Turner's career. It was also the formal introducation of 'Rock and Roll.' Ike Turner and Big Joe Turner are credited by scholars with the inception and pioneering of Rock and Roll recordings with these two timeless hits. Bill Haley re-recorded the song "Shake, Rattle and Roll," further popularizing it in American mainstream, but this original is preferred by rock and roll purists.
