All of our bargain books are brand new, perfectly readable and represent a tremendous value!
The bargain books are, however, publisher overstocks and remainders that TRW purchases at
deep discounts. As a result, they may have a small mark through the UPC bar code or a small
mark on the side of the book. This is simply to mark the books so they cannot be sent back to
a publisher. Because of this, bargain books are non returnable to TRW unless they are damaged.
Please consider this before ordering.

| When Marian Sang: The True Recital of Marian Anderson | ||
| ISBN: 9780439269674 Author: Ryan, Pam Muñoz (Author) / Selznick, Brian (Illust Publisher: Scholastic Press Published: October 2002 Retail: $19.99 OUR PRICE: $12.79 You Save 36% Binding Type: Hardcover Annotation: Children’s Literature Legacy Award Winner A harmonious introduction to one of our country's most important singers and role models--as envisioned by Newbery Honoree Pam Munoz Ryan and Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick. Marian Anderson is best known for her historic concert at the Lincoln Memorial in 1939, which drew an integrated crowd of 75,000 people in pre-Civil Rights America. While this momentous event showcased the uniqueness of her voice, the strength of her character, and the struggles of the times in which she lived, it is only part of her story. Like the operatic arias Marian would come to sing, Ryan's text is as moving as a libretto, and Selznick's pictures as exquisitely detailed and elaborately designed as a stage set. What emerges most profoundly from their shared vision is a role model of courage. |
