Subject(s): Genre/Form: Summary: "On ordinary days, you could see him. A beautiful boy, but small with a smile given only to lilacs growing between broken sidewalks carrying in his pockets a sound. Before Prince became one of the bestselling musicians of all time, he was a boy named Prince Rogers Nelson. Often overlooked and abandoned, he found his own inspiration in the world around him - teaching himself how to play the guitar, the piano, the drums, and much more. And when he grew up, he used these small details of the everyday to make music, and make the world around him more colorful. With art from Jacqueline Alcantara, 'Ordinary Days' is a tender, profound look into Prince's life and the moments that shaped him"-- Publisher's description.
