MAX MAGEE

By Railin Morgan
Illustrated by Carol Timmers

(May 6, 2020)

“Play for me, young Max Magee,
Just one before you go . . .”

In this touching, melodic book, a mother reminisces on her son’s life as a pianist. As a child, he practices before running out to play, and as he ages, he inherits his father’s grand piano. As a young man, his devotion to music grows, and he eventually becomes a concert pianist. Although adored by his audience, Max Magee knows his most cherished fan remains his mother, and through his music he is able to express his love for her. Max Magee offers the poignant experience of a mother’s love: encouraging, celebrating, and, ultimately, letting go.

A beautiful book to read and look at with my grandson. When I'm not there he can listen to Dinah Christie read the book to him and learn to read the words with her. Thanks Railin Morgan...........a real gift for children, parents and grandparents everywhere.

...Railin Morgan has created something so lovely and unique! How many of us have seen those little legs and feet swinging from the piano seat and listened to our own children advance through practicing the piano!...
- Laurie Nak


Artwork, music, narration, and writing all done by individual efforts of talented contributors. This, in combination with an author that is not afraid to put her emotions on a page results in this piece of art.

More than just a story, it's for encouraging young kids into music. I recommend adding this to your collection.
