Overview

A new young adult novel from the author of Reporter in Disguise! Sterling Crawford is a poor African American boy living in New Orleans. Sterling plays the trumpet just like his idol Buddy Bolden, a major figure in the development of American jazz. Bolden's music inspires Sterling into the eclectic, inspiring and sometimes shady world of this art form. Kid Sterling is a wonderfully textured story of a young aspiring musician that takes us through the streets, the honky-tonks, and the prisons of a legendary city where great musicians burst with ideas about a music that would eventually take over the world.
