Katy on Broadway by Ella English

-

Available tomorrow, on Singing Out Day, is a delightful children’s book, Katy on Broadway. The book is perfect for beginning chapter readers as it has 5 chapters and is 44 pages long. This is my first tour on Blackberry Book Tours and I’m so excited. Their mascot, KittyBerry, is adorable and as a cat lover, is perfect!

I’m a Superstar!
Katy loves to sing and practices every day. Gerry says she can’t, and Lilian says New York is too dangerous for such a small kitty. But now she’s ready to try! She escapes her yard and makes it to the city. But it IS a big scary place! Now she’s all alone and lost. How will she find her way? Can she really become a superstar?

I can’t enough great things about this book. As I said, it is perfect for beginning chapter readers. The chapters are short and easy to read. The pictures are beautiful and fit the book perfectly. I read this with my daughter who is 8 years old and we both loved it. Katy goes on an adventure to live out her dream despite many discouraging her. I loved this message to follow your dreams no matter what. Katy believed she could be a singer and her journey was not easy but she kept a great attitude and kept going.

Author Info:

Ella English has been passionate about art ever since she held her first paintbrush at age three, and was encouraged by her family to pursue art ever since. She is the mother of two grown daughters who loved books, ballet and singing when they were small. She decided to start writing and illustrating books when she realized how important it was to nurture creativity in children. Her hope is that this book will encourage parents to be proud of their children’s singing, no matter what it sounds like! She lives in Baltimore with her three cats, including a singing black and white tuxedo called Mouse. This yowling kitty inspired her to write this story about a lovable New York cat who is bored with her everyday life and longs to break free and sing to an audience beyond the critters in her garden who tell her she can’t sing.

Welcome to my stop on The Children’s Book Review in partnership with Catherine Rose for her book, Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection. About the Book: Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection tells a story of the magic created when the unique talents of a diverse group of children are shared in a colorful adventure. The adventure begins when we see through a boy’s window to find a young trombonist pausing his practice to wonder if other musical voices exist. When an alluring treble note wafts through his window, he begins an excited quest to find the answer. Playing his horn through his neighborhood, the boy draws other curious children to play their unique instruments along with him. Together, they played: “Lend your voice, play your part! Something grand is beginning― join us for the start!” The procession of music makers is touched with magic when their combined voices, raised in harmony, orchestrate a colorful miracle. The ease of poetry and vibrant il
