[This] biography ... details the heroism in Ray Charles' life." -- The Horn Book It was extremely hard to be a child of the Depression, but even more so without sight. Ray Charles Robinson was that child, and his gutsy story of achievement will inspire readers of all ages. At the age of six he lost his sight, and at seven left his family to attend a school for the blind. By the time Charles graduated at 15, his parents and brother had died. His first job was playing the piano at a radio station. By age 24, Charles had traveled from Greenville, Florida, to Seattle, dropped his last name, played the Apollo Theatre, formed a band of his own, and had the number two spot on Billboard's Rhythm and Blues chart with "I Got a Woman". He painstakingly composed music in Braille and could play several instruments. Charles has received numerous music and humanitarian awards and composed the state song of Georgia. Ford's illustrations in black acrylic and India ink contain the same passion and energy Charles exemplifies. Read this book aloud when featuring biographies, people of achievement, or themes related to music. This book, first published in 1973, was a Coretta Scott King Award winner for both text and illustrations. This new edition contains a foreword and afterward by the author, which updates Charles' life to the present. -- Library Talk Coretta Scott King Illustrator Award, American Library Association (ALA) Coretta Scott King Author Award, American Library Association (ALA) Choices, Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC) Storytelling World Honor Award, Storytelling World, "Winner of both the Coretta Scott King Author Award and the Coretta Scott King Illustrator Award, Ray Charles by Sharon Bell Mathis, illus. by George Ford, originally published in 1973, traces the star's surmounting of incredible obstacles to become one of the world's greatest jazz musicians.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
