by Catherine Greer (Author), Joanna Bartel (Illustrator), Alexander Lau (Composer)
This book is perfect for young readers just beginning to learn an instrument, particularly violin or cello, as well as for every parent or teacher helping them along the way. The story celebrates the joy of unexpected friendship through music, with appealing characters and carefully drawn settings of apartment living. Two children, two cultures, two instruments, and one piece of music; the inclusion of a playable tune is a bonus!
