Singing Lessons for the Stylish Canary

The nineteenth of April appears to be the most popular day of the year (so far) for book launches, and so it's perhaps no surprise that today's featured 2022 Debut, Laura Stanfill's historical and magical realist Singing Lessons for the Stylish Canary is an April 19 launch. Georges Blanchard is a master builder of high-pitched barrel organs that train songbirds to sing human melodies, but his son Henri has no interest in following in his father's footsteps, and instead prefers making bobbin lace with the local girls. Will Henri find his place in the world? What happens when he discovers he has a half-brother in America?
