BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
The music was in Roberta from the time she was born. She was able to take a few piano lessons, but dreamed of a piano of her own. When her daddy spies a piano in the junkyard, he is determined to fix it up and save it for Roberta – her very own bright green piano. First the piano and then her song – on to become a Grammy-winning artist.
I love that Roberta wants everyone to know her story – that even someone who started out poor can still chase their dreams. Fun for a music class, Black studies, Women studies, or just for a chance to enjoy.
