 Author Debbie Ann Taylor REVIEWS:
"The characters' passion for jazz is echoed on their expressive faces and in their graceful postures, and Uncle Click's affection for his nephew shines through. A wonderful ode to the power of music and of family love." - SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL "Bright acrylics abandon realism to emphasize rhythm, elongated forms moving simously against backgrounds that curve, slant, and boogie-woogie—but almost never stay still. Nearly pitch-perfect." — KIRKUS REVIEWS LITERACY ORGANIZATIONS: |
