"Father/son talents Walter Dean Myers and Christopher Myers teamed up to create a beautiful exploration of musical blues .... The call-and-response text is brought alive by narrator Richard Allen's enthusiastic rendition of the text, accompanied by simple blues instrumentation....Appropriate for group or individual listening..An essential addition to school and public library collections." -School Library

"Myers' fun picture book about a junkyard dog turned celebrated blues musician works wonderfully... thanks to Charles Turner's spirited narration and Mark "Dog" Deffenbaugh's bluesy guitar strumming...Turner's energetic narration keeps the story humming along. Deffenbaugh's guitar work pleases the ear, and his performance of 'The New York City Blues' (music and lyrics by Myers) is the program's highlight. This story about the joys of blues music has found a format that serves it very well." - School Library Journal

" Narrator Adriana Sananes provides an authentic Spanish accent for the Spanish words, and clear English for the rest of the text. This is a delightful bilingual romp, and teachers will appreciate the chance to compare and contrast the story with the English. This is both a visual and an auditory treat that is sure to stir up a lot of enthusiasm from any audience." -School Library Journal

"The life and legacy of Cuban American singer Celia Cruz is introduced in this simple but evocative picture-book biography, illustrated with fittingly bright and impressionistic art by Julie Maren. Jazz and salsa singer Manzo, also of Cuban heritage, performs the text word-for-word, accompanied by strains of salsa and well-chosen ambient sounds that extend the narrative." Booklist
