That's My Piano, Sir! {Review}



In this volume of Little Stories of Great Composers, music loving Minim is waiting at the docks for a new ship to come in.  He and his family are anxious to go in search of some tasty cheese, but this ship in particular is taking longer to unload.  While trying to calm his growling stomach, Minim notices a strange box being unloaded.  What could it be?  And when the box opens, a young boy appears on the scene, giving a spontaneous concert.  Who else should that boy be, but Amadeus Mozart. 

This delightful series of picture books introduces young readers to some of the great composers.  Our little guide, Minim, is sweet and endearing.  He's a perfect blend of curiosity and humor for little ones to relate to.  The story is short and sweet, with enough information to introduce Mozart without being overwhelming.  And the illustrations are beautiful.  This book also includes a code for downloading recordings of Mozart's work to delight the reader.  That's My Piano, Sir!  is a great book for introducing young readers to the classics.
