The book includes never-before-seen photos of
Eilish from childhood, including one of her at the piano singing
into a child's tape recorder.
The audiobook features Eilish telling stories about her first
release, 'Ocean Eyes' and talking about the special relationship
she has with fans.
"It's funny like, I think a lot of people think that when 'Ocean
Eyes' came out, suddenly I was a superstar and quit everything
and just became like famous... and it did not work like that at
all.
"Yeah, my life stayed the same for a while. I was still dancing
hours and hours and hours a day. And I was in choir still and I
was doing all the same things I did. I was in circus class," she
told Reuters.
"But to me it was huge and it was like the biggest moment of my
life."
In 2020 Eilish became the youngest artist ever to write and
record a James Bond theme song, following in the footsteps of
such stars as Adele, Madonna and Paul McCartney.
The 19-year-old's debut album topped the Billboard 200 charts in
2015 and was the most streamed of 2019. This year Eilish won the
Grammy for Record of the Year for 'everything i wanted.'
The book will be released on May 11.
