"So You Want to Be a Rock Star" by Audrey Vernick, Illustrated by Kirstie Edmunds

This is one of the best musical themed books I have ever read.  This book is a kid-friendly how to involving all things (positive) about being a rock 'n' roll star.  Everything from the air guitar, to the crazy hair, to performing for your audience is covered in this book.  Its a great read for kids of all ages- and is even better if the kids act out the instructions as you read.  Of course there is so much more to actually learning music and gaining musical talent, but this book is great for sparking the imagination.  Before you know it, any kid you read this to will be forming a pretend band with the neighbor kids and rocking out in your backyard.


Audrey Vernick takes the world of rock star and puts it into a very age appropriate perspective for children.  She invites the to take a journey into your imagination (come on parents, join in the fun too. Your kids will love it!). Kirstie Edmunds illustrations are are a great accompaniment
to this book as well.  There book only needs one word to describe it- FUN!

Happy Reading!
