There's A Rock Concert In My Bedroom

I bought "There's A Rock Concert In My Bedroom" purely out of nepotism, because it was cowritten by Kevin and Danielle Jonas (illustrated by Courtney Dawson). Obviously, I was going to buy it; obviously. But it was really good!!!


["Emma loves music.

She loves the boom boom boom of a good bass beat.

She loves the stomp stomp stomp her feet make when she dances.

She loves to rock out with her mom, her dad, and her little sister.

And she loves to twang, strum, and thrum on her guitar.

So when the sign-up sheet for the school talent show is posted, she adds her name right away! But the more Emma hears about the amazing talents her classmates will bring, the more nervous she gets. What if her guitar playing is more of a plink, plonk, squeak ?

She's suffering from a bad case of stage fright, and it's up to her family to show her that performing can be fun too, and that she's already a star."] 

It's about the joy of music, the power of family, and facing your fears. It's inclusive as fuck without being outright about it. It's colorful and bright. It's supportive and wonderful.

Nepotism aside, I would tooooootally recommend this book to anyone with kiddos, anyone who works with kiddos, or anyone who likes to read picture books.
