Discover the untold story of Ella Jenkins, the First Lady of Children's Music. While known for appearances on Sesame Street and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, few realize her groundbreaking career was rooted in the fight for equality. Growing up in segregated Chicago, Ella discovered music's power to unite. This biography follows her journey from a childhood influenced by jazz greats like Cab Calloway to her cross-country tours, where she introduced global sounds and stories to homes and classrooms. A Life of Song: The Story of Ella Jenkins shares how Ella fearlessly used music as a tool to fight racism and bring people together. "Ella Jenkins is an amazing musical figure that many may have heard about, but unfortunately know little about," says author Dr. Taylor. "Ms. Jenkins has used music to bridge and unite people, especially during the U.S. Civil Rights era. I hope readers carry on her legacy by sharing this book and, in the process, smile and sing."
