What a Wonderful World by Bob Thiele, George David Weiss, Tim Hopgood


Rating: WORTHY!

I liked this because it was something different. The words are taken from the song by Bob Thiele and George David Weiss that was written for Louis Armstrong and released in 1967. It was a huge hit in the UK, although not so much in the US where the idiot owner of the company Armstrong has just signed for, refused to promote the song! He was wanting another "Hello Dolly." Moron. They had to lock him out of the recording studio because he was so disruptive!

Illustrated by Hopgood, the book is just the kind of reassuring, feelgood book the world needs at times like these, and I commend it as a worthy read.
