Ben's Trumpet by Rachel Isodora
The story of Ben is fiction, but it could be the story of more than one jazz musician who grew up in the twenties. Using the artdeco style of the period, Rachel Isadora not only captures the poignancy and yearning of a youthful talent, but in page after page of striking art seems to convey the very sound of music.A virtuoso performance for picture book readers of all ages to enjoy.Rachel Isadora began dancing when she was eight years old. She is a professional dancer who studied at George Balanchine's Academy of American Ballet. Rachel and her family reside in New York City. Opening Night, My Ballet Class, Swan Lake, The Little Match Girl, and Ben's Trumpet, which won the Caldecott Honor Award and the Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor Award, are just a few of Rachel Isadora's novels set in the realm of dance and theater.copyright (c) 2000 by Penguin Putnam Books for Young Readers.
