I love this series. As an adult, it's a quick way to learn a lot about artists or composers. I left this on our kitchen table and found my 8-year-old son cuddled up on our sofa with it a half hour later, laughing and showing me one of the illustrations. This is an excellent book!
Great book for children. Informative and accurate with wonderful artwork. A must for a young prodigy. It came beautifully wrapped and shipped quickly. Couldn't be happier
This series of books is fantastic for introducing students or anyone, really, to composers and the arts. A wonderful resource for learning, concise but very informative.
As a teacher, I love this series! My goal is to teach my 3rd graders about the famous artists and composers. This series makes it easy, fun, and interesting!
This book is nice. It doesn't go into a lot of detail, enough for early elementary age group. For older kids might want to add some other info.
This is a great book to use in the music classroom. My students love learning about people in history that made beautiful music!
Kids love the format and the easy to read text. Works great with our notebooking home education.
This is a favorite of my son (5 years old). A great way to introduce the young to great artists.
