This book is a great tool to teach music minded children about one of the greatest artists to be in the jazz genre
“Duke taught himself to press on the pearlies like nobody else could.”
pickThis is an informative story about jazz legend Duke Ellington. This story does a great job of explaining history and culture with child centered language.
The Lord Of The Rings trilogy and The Hobbit. I think the movie adaptations of The Hobbit and The Lord Of The Rings were very good. I never felt like any of the movies were too long. I just had a great time watching the movies and I liked the story. What‘s amazing to me is that Tolkien made up all of the languages in the books.

pickThe premise of this YA book is wild. Piano prodigy Kiri, whose older sister died in an “accident,” spends 6 weeks home alone while her parents go on vacation. She makes some bad decisions then some worse ones and ends up with a mentally ill boyfriend, a drunken friend, and the truth about her sister‘s death. As her mental health splinters, the people around her do little. Soft pick for the boyfriend‘s redemption arc and Kiri‘s unique voice, but 😯
Daniel Mason is an author I will ALWAYS follow! The Piano Tuner is still my favorite but the others certainly did not disappoint!#DanielMason#ThePianoTuner#NorthWoods#TheWinterSoldier#AFarCountry
