mother to organize a benefit evening at Al's former elementary school,
to keep music alive and very, very well in the local schools. At
the end of the book, Carmen has incorporated a list of legendary
singers and musicians, along with some information on jazz instruments,
as an added educational component of the book.This draws young readers
