Children's Book of Music Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Several months ago, my five-year-old daughter checked out The Children's Book of Music from the library. It was a huge hit! We could not go anywhere without the book and cd (comes with it). Our two-week checkout came much too soon, and we had to return it. We returned to the library repeatedly to check it out again, but it was always out. Therefore, I ended up buying it for a Christmas gift. It was, by far, her favorite Christmas morning surprise. The content in the book is rich with musical history, and the pictures are absolutely fantastic. It would be a great book for music lovers of any age (my husband and I certainly enjoy it as much as our daughter).
