There was nobody like Pete Seeger.

Wherever he went, he got people singing. 

With his head thrown back

and his Adam's apple bouncing,

picking his long-necked banjo

or strumming his twelve-string guitar,

Pete sang old songs,

new songs,

new words to old songs,

and songs he made up.

In  this gorgeously written and illustrated tribute to legendary musician  and activist Pete Seeger, author Leda Schubert highlights major musical  events in Mr. Seeger's life as well important moments of his fight  against social injustice.  From singing sold-out concerts to  courageously standing against the McCarthy-era finger-pointing, Pete  Seeger's life is celebrated in this bold book for young readers with gorgeous illustrations by Raúl Colón.
