When Marian Sang, by Pam Munoz Ryan

I used this biography in a library program today (involving karaoke) and am once again impressed by its beauty.  The story is an amazing tale of success and triumph in the face of unfairness and adversity, which always has a powerful effect on an audience.  A classic to enjoy and learn from again and again.  Thank you Pam Munoz Ryan!

A new book is coming out for fans of Amy Krouse Rosenthal!  She has already written titles like Duck, Rabbit and Little Pea. This is all about playing with numbers to make words. A little like texting.
