Ella Fitzgerald was a “Skit-Scat Raggedy Cat” in other words poor, unkempt and wore raggedy clothes. This is the story of how she persevered amidst hardship and found her beautiful swinging, melodic voice and went from a “Raggedy Cat” to “High Hat Baby.” Rich red and blue illustrations add rhythm and beat to the prose.
