Ben's Trumpet: A Caldecott Honor Award WinnerHardcover, 1 February 1979

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.
