Industry Reviews
"Rosen's oil paintings truly bring this story to life. Her bold brush strokes and bright colors are reminiscent of Van Gogh, and bring a warm feeling to the entire story...What a wonderful way to introduce children to the world of music, and to the inspiration that is all around them."
Kirkus Reviews (07/15/2001)
