From the legendary Dolly Parton comes a story about her god-dog and
Instagram personality, Billy the Kid, who is hoping to make it big
as a country music star in Nashville, Tennessee. French bulldog
Billy the Kid was born with an ear for music. And not just any
music. He loves barking to the beat of country music! So Billy sets
out to Nashville to sing his heart out. But when he meets some big
bullies at the Battle of the Bow-wows, Billy worries he's barking
up the wrong tree. He'll need his favorite songs ("Jowlene" and "I
Will Pawlways Love You," of course), a group of scrappy new
friends, and his favorite country music star to regain
self-confidence and be the star he always knew he could be. Written
by Dolly Parton with Erica S. Perl and illustrated by MacKenzie
Haley, this is a delightful picture book about standing up to
people (and dogs) who put you down and finding the drive to achieve
your dreams.

revisit people and places you loved in the BBC tv series "Wayfaring
Stranger" ... by the authors as featured in the acclaimed BBC tv
series "Wayfaring Stranger" Throughout the eighteenth and
nineteenth centuries, a steady stream of Scots migrated to Ulster
and eventually onward across the Atlantic to resettle in the United
States. Many of these Scots-Irish immigrants made their way into
the mountains of the southern Appalachian region. They brought with
them a wealth of traditional ballads and tunes from the British
Isles and Ireland, a carrying stream that merged with sounds and
songs of English, German, Welsh, African American, French, and
Cherokee origin. Their enduring legacy of music flows today from
Appalachia back to Ireland and Scotland and around the globe. In
Wayfaring Strangers, Fiona Ritchie and Doug Orr guide readers on a
musical voyage across oceans, linking people and songs through
centuries of adaptation and change. From ancient ballads at the
heart of the tradition to instruments that express this dynamic
music, Ritchie and Orr chronicle the details of an epic journey.
