This book is a great introduction to the life and music of Miss Ella Fitzgerald, the beloved First Lady of Song. Should be included in all elementary school libraries. Great photographs and and index and time line included - very useful.
This is a good book about Ella for young readers. There are plenty of pictures that help tell the story. She was very talented and entertained many people. Highly recommended.
