'Passionate, warm, fiery, amorous, sympathico, tender, demonstrative, pleasing, robust, whimsical, amusing, fanciful, well-rounded...Lisa's disc affirms the fact that the world wouldn't quite be the same without music.' George W. Carroll/The Musicians' Ombudsman 'The clarity of her projection is awesome. There is no pretense in her voice. I love the sense of innocence that she has. It seems to come from a genuine reverence for the music. Totally amazing.' -Mark Kleinginna, jazz fan With her dynamic voice, Lisa Marinacci combines the sentiment and sincerity of yesterday with the contemporary sound of today. Produced by both Lisa and famed jazz guitarist Joe Negri, Waiting For Spring features 11 tracks, both old and new, and features a swinging quartet of Joe Negri on guitar, Max Leake on piano, Brian Stahurski on bass, and Thomas Wendt on drums. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Lisa began singing and performing at a very early age. When she was 5 years old she made her professional debut with Maureen McGovern at Heinz Hall in 'The Sound Of Music', and since then has performed with The Pittsburgh Pops conducted by Marvin Hamlisch, Stephen Schwartz, The Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera, Royal Caribbean International, and with The Hilton Head Jazz Trio, among others. The history of jazz music in her family spans several generations, as both of her grandfathers were musicians, and her cousin Bob Cooper played saxophone with The Stan Kenton Orchestra and was married to jazz singer, June Christy. Early in her career, Lisa began working live and on television with well-known jazz guitarist Joe Negri (of the television show, 'Mr. Rogers Neighborhood'). One of the most influential jazz guitarists of his time, Mr. Negri was instrumental in introducing Lisa to the world of jazz and standards, involving her in programs like 'Jazz for Juniors'. Lisa earned both her undergraduate and graduate degrees from Carnegie Mellon University, and relocated to New York where she has performed at Donnell Hall, with AMAS Musical Theater, and with the NYC Fringe Festival. While spending most of her time working and performing in NYC, she still considers Pittsburgh to be her home. Lisa enjoys singing all styles of music, and is also a writer and actress. With arrangements done by Joe Negri, 'Waiting For Spring', contains 11 tracks of both new and old tunes. The title track was written by Mr. Negri himself, and has never before been recorded.

A fast paced and exciting read
Format: Kindle
I really enjoyed this book about the sinking of the USS Indianapolis by a Japanese submarine towards the end of World War II. The story is told through the eyes of a sixteen year old boy, Josh, who lied about his age on his enlistment application and forged his mother's signature. He was determined to do his bit for the American war effort and revenge the death of his father during the attack on Pearl Harbour.
When the USS Indianapolis was torpedoed, the survivors, about three quarters of the crew, were flung into the ocean without any survival equipment. Many of them did not even have life jackets and were burned by the fire that had broken out on board the ship or injured when they were swept overboard. The scent of urine and blood soon attracts sharks, lots of sharks, and the survivors fear that they have survived the sinking of the ship only to become food for these huge and vicious fish.
The story is short and sharp and I think middle school and young teenage boys will really enjoy it. The author shares some details of the attack and sinking of the ship, without making it to graphic and over whelming for younger readers. Boys, particularly, will relate to the action packed excitement of the attack and also to Josh's thoughts about his mother and younger brother back home. The terrible hardship of being in the ocean for a few days, without food or water, the temptation to drink sea water to alleviate the dreadful thirst and the savage behavior of some of the other survivors are all well told but not with so much detail that younger readers will become overwhelmed or bored.
Josh's relationship with another young survivor, Lee, who is of Japanese extraction is also most interesting and contains a good message of delving deeper into relationships and people that merely their heritage and looks.

RAW AND REAL
Format: Kindle
A powerful story of a historical adventure narrated through the eyes of a sixteen-year-old survivor. Josh enlisted with forged papers to avenge the death of his father at Pearl Harbor. He is straight out of boot camp serving on the USS Indianapolis when the battleship is struck by a Japanese torpedo. He struggles to escape the burning ship, but that is just the beginning of his troubles. No help is in sight; sharks infest the waters, and the survivors begin to turn against each other.
This book is a powerful story filled with raw emotions, adventure, and history. The authors provide readers with an action-packed tale filled with interesting facts about sharks and military history. It contains actual photographs, maps, and hand-drawn illustrations.
The book is little more than one hundred pages. Reluctant readers can easily navigate the short chapters with graphics. Targeted for middle grades but just as appealing to young adult and adult audiences.

Approved by my 8 year old!
Format: Paperback
My 8 yr old son read it on his own. He liked it but some parts were a bit gross and scary for him. It is along the lines of the I Survived books. He said it was a good story because it was based on real life even though some of the parts were a little scary.

Read it to ok for 9 year old
Format: Kindle
I heard about this series and wanted to see if it would be up her alley. I downloaded this book to read before bed and now it's the middle of the night. I ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the book. I'm a woman in my 40's and it was a great read for me! I know my daughter will really enjoy it.
She struggles with her vocabulary so I've been selecting and pre-reading books and gathering words I know she will be challenged by. Then I make those her spelling words for the week and use the words in sentences 100k times until she knows them. Doing that has really improved her reading experience and helps her flow through the book easier and enjoy it far more.
Great book.

Very good book. Super interesting and great articulation for a young reader. Very captivating and very inspiring. I’ve read escaped prison island aswell (check it out) and Scott peters and Ellie Crowe are really good authors! Definite read and I love how they tied in ww2 to something you would have never associated a shark story with. Learned a lot thx.
