by Tori Amos (Author), Demelsa Haughton (Illustrator)
From the Grammy-nominated and multiplatinum singer-songwriter and New York Times bestselling author Tori Amos comes Tori and the Muses, a thoughtful and sprightly tale of young Tori navigating the magical world of inspiration in all its forms.
Tori is no ordinary child--her musical inspirations and talents are clear from a young age. But when her dad forces her to rehearse for her recital, Tori is unhappy. She wants to play what she wants to play! And though they don't see eye to eye, Tori has a secret: eleven Muses who have visited her since she was a baby and inspire her to write and make her own beautiful music. These fairy godmother-like Muses remind Tori that inspiration is everywhere, and perhaps in helping others find their own Muses--including Dad--she may better understand her own inspirations. So, Tori takes her brand-new floating pink piano--a gift from the Muses--to see what might inspire others, in hopes of understanding what her dad's Muses might be. And she is surprised at what she finds. Filled with joy, curiosity, and imagination, this debut picture book written by Tori Amos with otherworldly illustrations by Demelsa Haughton will inspire, encourage, and most importantly, remind young readers to find inspiration in the things they love, and to listen to their own Muses.Author Biography
