Music, Music for Everyone
Vera B. Williams
Descripción
A beautiful celebration of the power of music and of community--a companion book to the beloved Caldecott Honor picture book A Chair for My Mother.
"Rosa organizes her friends into the Oak Street Band in order to earn money her family needs because of her grandma's illness. Community, family and personal triumphs converge, making unforgettable music for everyone." --School Library Journal
"Visual references connect readers to earlier books about Rosa's three-generation family, while the theme here underscores the interrelationship of Rosa to her foremothers, her girl friends, and their neighborhood. Images rich in vitality are placed within superbly composed, bordered watercolor paintings to convey the spirit of the story as well as details of their daily living." --BCCB
