Charlie Barnet (1913-1991) is best known as the popular bandleader whose hits included Cherokee, Pompton Turnpike, and Skyliner. But he was also the first to break the color barrier in a popular dance band, and his black musicians included Clark Terry, Roy Eldridge, and singer Lena Horne; his white musicians included Jack Purvis, Red Norvo, Maynard Ferguson, and Doc Severinson. Barnet not only played jazz, he lived the jazz life: in this book, he writes of his whiskey and marijuana habits, of his whorehouse visits and his half-dozen marriages. Charlie Barnet epitomised the jazz age, and there are few memoirs as lively as Those Swinging Years.Binding Type: Paperback

Engaging
Format: Paperback
We love this entire series. We had read book 3 first & my 8 year old loved it so much we bought the rest of the series. There’s enough of a cliffhanger that you want to know who he finds next in his family.

Good for young kids and to read at night
Format: Kindle
My kids have really enjoyed this series so far. Just finished the buddy files another short chapter book with pictures written for younger children and needed another short graphic chapter book. My kids lost interest after the second one though and have moved on to funnier books.

Fun and imaginative read-together stories
Format: Hardcover
Doodle Champion Island Games is a 2021 interactive role-playing browser game that features a character called Lucky the Ninja Cat who competes in various sports-based mini games, loosely based on the 2020 Summer Olympics and Summer Paralympics. Kitten Ninja is a marvelously illustrated book that features Ninja Cat as a kitten when he battles a sun spot, a ball of yarn, and snow. At the end of each battle, he is happily in the lap of his owner as they relax in her overstuffed chair. The quality and durability of the book is excellent, with bright colorful images and well-written text. This is a delightful book for a parent or caregiver to enjoy with a pre-school child or one that is learning to read, or a special gift for a young child who is learning to read or reads at grades 1 through 3 level.
