| book description |

An illuminating picture book biography of renowned Mexican American folk musician Joan Baez, whose songs of justice, peace, and activism have inspired listeners to create positive change across the world, from Christopher Awardâ€“winning author Monica Brown and Caldecott Honoree Molly Mendoza. From a young age, Joan Baez knew she wanted to make the world a better place. The daughter of immigrants from Mexico and Scotland, she learned values of compassion and advocacy from her parents. As Joan learned about people in need around the world, she sang to make herself feel betterâ€”and her beautiful voice made others feel better, too. Joan sang songs about workersâ€™ rights, civil rights, and the struggle for justice. She started in coffee shops and clubs, worked her way to singing at folk festivals and on New York stages, and eventually she sang next to Martin Luther King Jr. at the March on Washington, alongside CÃ©sar ChÃ¡vez, and for the President of the United States. Joan realized music could move peopleâ€™s hearts, minds, and feet toward a path of justice and peace. And she used the gift of her beautiful voice to do just that.
