This childrens book depicts the musical story of Gertrude Ma Rainey Pridgett (1886-1939), one of the earliest African American blues singers and one of the first generation of blues singers to record in the 20th century.

His book is appropriate for children ages 1-8, in addition to audiences who want to learn more about Americas forgotten musical legends.
