While Fender may not be a household name, his story will inspire future musicians and inventors. Recommended for children’s biography collections, especially those seeking to incorporate the arts into STEAM. Compare with Kim Tomsic’s Guitar Genius, the story of Fender’s contemporary, Les Paul.

Units on music and of American history will benefit from this jaunty tale.-Henrietta Verma, Credo Reference, Jackson Heights, NY

A worthy addition to biography collections, shedding light on an important figure in U.S. music history.
