Starlin: Concert Queen
O ovoj e-knjizi
The holiday concert is right around the corner, and Starlin--a multimodal communicator and wheelchair user--can't wait to show off her star power. Inspired by the Queen of Jazz, Starlin practices her bells along with Ella Fitzgerald's "Jingle Bells" until she's rocking them from start to finish. But when her friend Livie tries out for the solo too, Starlin worries she'll miss out on her chance to deliver holiday cheer. Can Starlin score the jazzy solo, or will a bit of improv save the day?
Starlin: Concert Queen is filled with holiday cheer, perseverance, and friendship. Drawing from family experience with disability, Anitra Rowe Schulte brings a chapter book centering the experience of a young disabled girl as she perseveres when something isn't immediately easy--and learns to adjust expectations to include her friends.
