Get in the mood for some piano music with these stories:
Ludwig van Beethoven and his five legless
pianos keep having to move from one apartment to another when his
neighbors complain about the noise.
Introduces very young children to the child prodigy, Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart, in a tribute to the beauty of listening, looking,
imagining, and, above all, playing.
When Debbie tries to interest Tina in playing the piano by creating a
cardboard keyboard, they find not only does it not have the same appeal
but also that they do not need to share everything to be best friends.
Jennifer has trouble making friends with her new cat Amadeus, until he hears her playing Mozart on the piano.
After Gus, who would rather play outside than practice music, does not
do too well at his piano recital, his grandfather shows him how music
can be fun.
A child prodigy at the piano sprinkles her
music with a little jazz. Based on the life of the twentieth-century
jazz musician, Mary Lou Williams.
Lulu avoids practicing the piano all week, and when Friday afternoon
arrives and she is not prepared for her lesson, she gets inspiration
from her teacher.
When a young boy goes to stay with his
grandmother, who has twisted her ankle, he teaches her about baseball
and she inspires him to enjoy playing the piano.
"Miss Kari, my piano teacher, tells me
that true artistry takes great imagination. It also takes a lot of
practice. The big day of my piano recital is almost here, and hoo boy,
have I been practicing! I've even got the help of my lucky hat and shoes
-- not to mention my lucky underwear."--Jacket.
