Clayton is a young boy who has just lost his Cool Papa. Clayton used to go around with his grandfather's Bluesman Band but now he feels the world has turned upside down. A story of beautiful music and finding yourself.

Evaluation

This book was excellent. I'm always looking for read-alouds that aren't 300 pages long, and I do believe this one makes an AMAZING read aloud. There are many moving parts and the history behind the Blues is truly fascinating. A must read story for all students.
