What is Play, Louis, play! : the true story of a boy and his horn about?
The True Story of a Boy and His Horn The childhood of Louis Armstrong was as fascinating as the great musician himself—and this chapter book biography tells it like never before. *Play, Louis, Play!* is written from the point of view of Louis' closest companion throughout his youth—his horn! In a jazz-inflected, exuberant voice, this unusual narrator tells it all, starting with the small New Orleans hock shop where little Louis bought his first trumpet for five hard-earned dollars. As Louis goes from a street quartet to the marching band of the Colored Waif 's Home to the big sounds of New Orleans jazz clubs, author Muriel Harris Weinstein creates a moving portrait of the jazz legend. Includes a detailed author's note, glossary of jazz terms, and bibliography. Formats : EPUB
