"I see skies of blue red roses in bloom for me and you ... Louis Armstrong - King of the Jaz
Amazon writes: "Music has been in my blood from the day I was born," said Louis Armstrong. He rose from a troubled childhood and a life of poverty to set the music world on fire. Armstrong's lively trumpet playing, trademark "scat" singing, and natural talent for showmanship dazzled audiences for more than fifty years. In clear, crisp prose, the McKissacks place Armstrong in American musical history and show the impact his extraordinary talent made throughout the world.
MY REVIEW: Great Book.. It tells the story in simple form of Louis Armstrong who gave birth to jazz music. He was amazing. I can still hear his deep rich voice sing and love it. Do check out this book and let your children listen on YouTube as he sings, Hello Dolly from the musical, Hello Dolly and What A Wonderful World after they learn about him and the success he made of a troubled world.
