[ 책 소개 ]
* Caldecott Honor 수상작
* Coretta Scott King Award 수상작
미국의 아동도서 작가들 중에는 부부가 함께 작업하는 경우가 많은데 이 책도 부인인 Andrea Davis Pinkney가 글을 쓰고, 남편인 Brian Pinkney가 그림을 그렸습니다.
20세기 가장 위대한 재즈피아노 연주자이자 1,000여편 이상의 음악을 작곡한 Duke Ellington의 생애를 마치 음악을 글로 옮긴 듯한 아름다운 문장으로 만나 보실 수 있습니다. 특히 Caldecott 상을 수상한 그림은, 유화로 먼저 밑그림을 그린 후 위에 검은 색을 칠하고 scratch방법으로 긁어내어 마치 목판화를 보는 듯한 느낌을 갖게하는 독특한 기법을 사용하고 있습니다.

Children's Literature
"Mood Indigo," "Creole Love Call," "Sophisticated Lady," "Take the A Train" are just a few of the many songs composed by Duke Ellington, one of the great names in the history of jazz. This is a loving tribute to him. The author's text is so rhythmical that it could be set to music. About the band's music, she writes: "Hot-buttered bop, with lots of sassy-cool tones...while they [the dancers] were cuttin' the rug, Duke slid his honey-colored fingertips across the ivory eighty-eights." Read it aloud so children hear the sassy, cool, gutbucket words of the jazz world. The illustrator's scratchboard paintings dance off the page in riots of color.
School Library Journal
A royal introduction to the piano prince. Told in a swingy conversational tone and highlighting the musician's childhood, early ragtime days, and stellar rise to popularity, playing at the Cotton Club and, later, Carnegie Hall, this is a jazzy treat. It is rare to find text that describes music so well. Phrases such as "sassy ride on his cymbal," "musical stream," and "purple dash of brass" carry the auditory experiences of the Duke's music right off the page. Young readers will find more than just a few facts here. They will learn what Duke Ellington did for the jazz world, how his music was played, and the legacy he left behind. Brian Pinkney's distinctive scratchboard, gouache and oil paintings are a harmonious complement to Andrea Pinkney's text. Bright, wild colors on soft neon backgrounds are beautifully balanced with black-and-white highlights. It is the blending of words, symbols, and pictures that bring this subject to life. A page of biographical information and impressive source notes conclude the presentation. This book swings. Don't miss it.
Parents' Choice?
Written in a cool colloquial prose ("You ever hear of the jazz-playin' man, the man with the cats who could swing with his band?), this breezy biography of jazz-giant Duke Ellington is short on historical facts and long on its jazzy style: "He had fine-as-pie good looks and flashy threads. He was a ladies' man with flair to spare." Children who know little about the beginnings of jazz, the names of various instrumentalists, and the tunes of the `30s and `40s ("Take the "A" Train, Mood Indigo, ect) will come away with only the sketchiest idea of Ellington's career and contributions to American Jazz. Brian Pinkney's illustrations make us almost hear Ellington's music, but they are overall too similar, spread after spread, to flesh out a thin text. This is more a mood piece than a traditional biography.
