Media reviews

"Levine's mixed-media art harmonizes perfectly with these vignettes. . . . Fans of any age will enjoy this paean to roots music." --Horn Book Horn Book

"Levine’s folk-art paintings, created with flat colors and occasional use of pattern, are quite distinctive." --Booklist Booklist, ALA

"Concise but thorough, this picture book discusses the evolution of a distinctive American music style through a chronicle of its biggest stars. . . . Colorful, stylized, folk art of the performers and/or their instruments is included." –SLJ School Library Journal

"The perfect primer for young music lovers...Homespun, folksy paintings that in their simplicity, charm and naivete...provide the perfect accent to George-Warren's informative, no-frills prose." Bookpage

"Levine supplies a bright, naiive, vintage-framed portrait of each artist...There's considerable visual appeal to draw in readers and sufficient hints to send readers out to rrack down the tunes." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"...After a few pages, you'll want to break out the fiddles, guitars and mandolins, and make your own country music." New York Post
