That’s My Piano, Sir! is part of the Little Stories of Great Composers Series - this volume dedicated to young Mozart. Due out 1st March 2021 from The Secret Mountain, it's 32 pages and will be available in hardcover and ebook formats.
This is an engaging and very well illustrated story from Mozart's early life told from the point of view of a little music (and cheese) loving mouse narrator named Minim. The illustrations are full of small details which will provide a lot of fun for reading-time to hunt and find. There are a number of human characters as well which will give ample opportunity for lots of voices during reading-time with the small humans.
Music is such an enriching and important part of our lives and an early introduction to great music will provide lifelong rewards. This is a sweet story which everyone can relate to. The book also includes a short timeline with highlights from Mozart's life.
Five stars. Lovely little book. Recommended for public & classroom acquisition, library activity groups, gifting, and home use.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
