(3) K-3 Illustrated by George Ford. Featuring a new introduction and afterword, this edition of the Coretta Scott King Award-winning picture book biography of Ray Charles describes the musician's childhood, his early career, and his eventual success. The telling is lively, sympathetic, and well structured; the illustrations are dramatic--monochromatic acrylic and India ink sketches on cream-colored paper.
