The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl
Dark Fiddler (Creative Editions)
A picture book biography of violinist Nicolo Paganini. Atmospherically mystical tale of the life of one of the most talented musical geniuses of all time. I wish there were many more books like this, that can entertainingly introduce young readers to musicians and composers of history. In doing so, it is an opportunity to bring together several layers of learning together, making history and biography a much more rich and meaningful experience.
