Prepare for today's PPBF to give you all the musically-euphoric feels.

Compare and contrast this title with David Ezra Stein's
Why I like this book: First, its incredible illustrations help bring this new Mo Willems' score to life to move its audience. Wow and holy cow; exquisitely done, Amber Ren.
Second, brace yourselves, because this treasure veers away from the author's usual funny; its intrigue truly lies in showing us the power of our every action to influence and inspire.
So Beethoven influences Shubert, who writes music which listeners love so much that they create an orchestra, and guess what? Someone's uncle gets sick, so someone's Aunt has an extra ticket to the symphony. See where this is going?
It reminds me a little bit of that 1980's Heather Locklear commercial advertising Faberge Organic Shampoo. Talk about your multiplier effect. She told two friends how amazing that shampoo was and they told two friends and so on and so on. Some people refer to that phenomenon as the Butterfly Effect. It's not just for weather, but for human influence as well. Compare and contrast Because with Andy Andrews' The Boy Who Changed The World. So many stakeholders in our every decision. Challenge students to come up with a different title, just for fun.
I think I'd call it Her Uncle's Ticket.
Check out this bright newcomer to see how it happened,
then head to Susanna Hill's Blog
to thank her for hosting PPBF every Friday.
Enjoy today ... just because.
