Singer, songwriter, musician, and now author—Tori and the Muses is Tori Amos’ debut children’s book though, honestly, there are plenty of adults that could stand to be inspired by this beautiful piece of work. With stunning illustrations by Demelsa Haughton, the book follows a child called, surprisingly enough, Tori as she takes the advice of her muses and embarks on a journey of magical, musical discovery. Her father might want her to concentrate on practicing for recitals, but young Tori has bigger ideas. It’s hard to argue with the results.
