Django: World’s Greatest Jazz Guitarist (2009) by Bonnie Christensen
This biography of Django (Jean Reinhardt), a Roma (“gypsy”) jazz guitarist, is told in picture book form. Born in 1910, Django overcame a serious burn injury to his hand and became a world acclaimed musician in Paris during WWII. The lyric text is accompanied by rich oil paintings. The end of the book also includes additional biographical notes. I would recommend this moving story for ages 6-10.
