In order to save his home cloud from merciless wind-strikes, an adventurous young raindrop must fall to the world below and search for answers. It's a great big sky out there...
Drew is the cutest of cute little dragons. He has friends and family who love him. But he is a very sad little dragon because, no matter how hard he tries, he cannot do what his friends can do. He cannot fly high in the sky, as his friends have learned to do. And he cannot breathe fire out of his mouth, even though he huffs and he puffs. He searches for help, and each time he is reassured with the words: "Remember, where there is great love, there are always miracles And I love you, Drew " But, despite these supportive words, and many attempts, Drew remains on the ground, breathing only a bit of smoke. Will Drew ever fly?The value in this story is that it teaches children that, even if they can't do what their friends can do, this does not diminish them in the eyes of the people who love them, and that one must remain optimistic and keep on trying.
Congratulations on a much needed book on the Big Band era, especially from the viewpoint of the 'side man'. Having been one for about eight years before becoming a 'leader' I can really appreciate your approach. A bandleader is no better than the men behind him and I have had some great ones, including of course Drew Page."" - Freddy MartinHaving lived behind the scenes during the Big Band era of the thirties and forties, Page invites us to share that era with him. An instrumentalist or sideman, in many touring bands, he recounts friendships with now-famous as well as unknown musicians who made American dance music. Like them, Drew Page loved his music and the road.He did not want to stay in one place and one job for thirty years, repeating one year or experience thirty times. He wanted to see things, to observe people and places. After a lifetime of traveling and music, ""every town began to seem like home.""Page's life was touched with humor, disappointment, triumph, and some tragedy. "" Perhaps it's the variety of my experiences, none seeming to relate to the others, that has given my life its discontinuity."" Certainly, discontinuity characterized his daily life, but continuity- his music- characterized its essence. Brought together by their art, the traveling bandmembers were apt to encounter each other any place, any time, and so they avoided goodbyes. ""I'll be seeing you.' That's the way I left Harry James and the boys in the band,"" recalls Page.In this well-illustrated autobiography, he tells us what it was like to travel in the days before paved roads, and how the Great Depression, the death of vaudeville, and World War II affected the music business. He gives us anecdotes about the famous musicians he worked with- Harry James, Red Nichols, Freddy Martin among others- and he talks about his fellow sidemen. His narrative unrolls like a scroll inscribed with the names of those who made American dance music and jazz famous. Every music lover, nostalgia seeker, and student of American culture will want to own this book.

Melvin Burkhart the Anatomical Wonder; Zip the Pinhead; Chang and Eng, the original Siamese twins; Johnny Eck, the King of the Freaks; Koo Koo the Birdgirl; and 45 more fascinating sideshow freaks both famous and obscure are immortalized in Drew Friedman’s delightful portraits. Before the politically correct impulses of the 1970s squelched the grand American tradition of the sideshow ? people born with abnormalities and others, like Jolly Jere the Fat Man, who created their oddity ? exhibited themselves to the shock and thrill of millions in sideshows nationwide. As a youth in the late 60s and early 70s, Drew Friedman often visited Coney Island with his family, and he and his brothers always insisted on seeing the "Freak Show." Drew Friedman’s Sideshow Freaks presents 50 of his favorite historic human oddities ? famous and obscure ? in mesmerizing full-color portraits. As in Warts and All, Old Jewish Comedians, and More Old Jewish Comedians, Drew Friedman once again meticulously, brilliantly, and affectionately brings to life people in the show business, this time focusing on America’s oddest performers.
