Tori Amos’ Children’s Book ‘Tori and the Muses’ is an Instant New York Times Bestseller!

A pioneer across multiple platforms, Grammy-nominated and multiplatinum singer-songwriter and New York Times bestselling author Tori Amos‘ debut children’s book, Tori and the Muses is an instant New York Times Bestseller debuting at #7. Earning widespread praise across the globe and appearing on GMA3 TV, MSNBC TV’s Morning Joe, the critically acclaimed book was released last Tuesday, March 4 as a physical Hardcover, Ebook and Audiobook with Penguin Workshop, an imprint of Penguin Young Readers.

With otherworldly illustrations by Demelsa Haughton, Tori and the Muses is a thoughtful and sprightly tale of young Tori navigating the magical world of inspiration in all its forms. It features a child with a very special secret: the eleven Muses who have guided her artistic pursuits since she was a baby. Unhappy when her father forces her to rehearse for music recitals, the Muses remind Tori that inspiration is everywhere, and perhaps in helping others find their own Muses she may better understand herself. Filled with joy, curiosity, and imagination, this debut picture book will inspire, encourage, and most importantly, remind young readers to find inspiration in the things they love.

Tori just wrapped up a sold out U.S. book tour which kicked off as she announced a surprise accompanying soundtrack to the book titled The Music of Tori and the Muses, offering readers a unique multi-dimensional experience. The album features long time collaborators, Mark Hawley, Jon Evans, Matt Chamberlain, Ash Soan and John Philip Shenale, with Tori providing vocals and playing an array of keyboards as well of course her renowned Bösendorfer Piano. From album opener “Knocking” right through to “S’Magic Day” the music follows the journey of Little Tori on her fantastic day of discovery.
