"Author Tony Medina pays tribute to legendary musician, poet, and activist Bob Marley in this outstanding production narrated by Jaime Lincoln Smith.... Smith's Jamaican accent and spot-on delivery animate the words, lifting them above evocative soundscapes enriched with selections from Marley's music. Enjoying the picture book's vibrant illustrations by Jesse Joshua Watson or reading along with the text can enhance the listening experience. Still, the audio performance stands remarkably well on its own." AudioFile Magazine

Starred Review Julieta’s parents work in the world of art museums, and she is eager to accompany her father to Paris’ Louvre as he arranges the loan of art pieces for an exhibition in Boston. When the famed Regent Diamond is stolen, Julieta is in the middle of a high stakes mystery. With a bilingual family and international travel, the full cast portrays a range of accents, as well as phrases in Spanish and French, with panache. ... Underpinning the mystery are facts about Paris,
art history, mythology, and culture. In other works, nonfiction asides can be dry, but here they are seamlessly woven into the plot and Julieta’s excitement for new knowledge is contagious to the listener. BOOKLIST
