#CoverStories Day 29: #Music that transcends borders is what Yo Yo Ma, United Nations Messenger of Peace, creates - and this is a fantastic picturebook biography that shows exactly that. My full review including a video of Yo Yo Ma‘s historic musical performance that took place at the Rio Grande also known as the US-Mexico Border: https://wp.me/pDlzr-quq - A very timely book.

Sunday morning reading. I‘ve never read anything by Patrick Gale before… I‘m really enjoying this book. Halfway now 👍🏻❤️

And then I hear the sharp intake of his breath followed by the sound of his voice. It‘s the first time today I can truly hear him.
“Mia?” he asks.

A teenage girl gets in a terrible car accident one winter morning and wakes up outside of the car, watching her family and the scene. Suddenly, she realizes she‘s looking at her body! This is the story of a near death experience, of memory, of choices. If it were you, what would you choose? And would it be for you, or for someone else?

It‘s okay. If you want to go. Everyone wants you to stay. I want you to stay more than I‘ve ever wanted anything in my life. But that‘s what I want and I could see why it might not be what you want. So I just wanted to tell you that I understand if you go. It‘s okay if you have to leave us. It‘s okay if you want to stop fighting.

Full Review: https://southernersreadtoo.com/2022/09/30/let-the-music-sway-your-heart/

This book was magical, lyrical, and adorably sweet. You can‘t help but fall in love with the trio of Grace, angry teenager Nadia, and the eccentric, yet wise, Mr. Williams. If you have ever fallen in love with a stringed instrument, this book will whisper to you. I loved every second of it.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
