Raschka uses ink, oil pastel, and watercolors on butter board (looks a little like a brown paper bag) to make the loose, jazzy art for this brief story of Mary Lou Williams' life and music. Piano keys are black and white, Mary's hands are brown, and sound is represented by color. Except for the cover, no whole faces are shown in the book, including Mary's: only hands, and the sides of heads, so music/color can be shown flowing into ears. Back matter includes a capsule biography, an illustration of Mary, and a quote. The only source is https://www.marylouwilliams.foundation/… (mais)

The illustrations make this book stand out. They're a little crazy, kind of messy, and full of energy and life. The text is good, too. It's funny and true. Also, both of the adult couples in this book are interracial, which is not mentioned in the text. I really like it when children's books include diversity without making it the whole point of the book. It should be done more often.

SUPER brief text. Touching story explained in a simple paragraph at the end of the book.
