Description

How did famous New Orleans jazz trumpet player Louis Armstrong get his first horn?
 
Seven-year-old Louis Armstrong used to be too poor to shop for an actual instrument. He didn’t even go to school. To assist his mother pay the rent, each day he rode a junk wagon through the streets of New Orleans, playing a tin horn and collecting stuff people didn’t want. Then someday, the junk wagon passed a pawn shop with a gleaming brass trumpet within the window. . . .
