Just a Lucy So and So by Lesa Cline-Ransome illustrated by James Ransome

 I had my thirteen-year -old read this picture biography to support our literature study of The Trumpet of the Swan. I also read it. Ms. Cline-Ransome reveals Louis's consistent love for music throughout his life and how he  becomes famous. I found the text a bit confusing as I am not familiar with New Orleans, the slang, or the Jazz musicians. The author's note clarified a lot for me.
