I Love Classical Music

This cheerful board book, an addition to the My First Sound series, includes sound buttons that, when pressed, play classical music themes. Billet’s six scenes show friendly cartoon animals: bees, butterflies, and ladybugs flutter to the tune of “Spring” from Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons; a happy green trout leaps in pursuit of a retreating dragonfly as Schubert’s Trout Quintet plays; and two mice perform Tchaikovsky’s “Dance of the Mirlitons” from The Nutcracker. A gentle classical music primer sized for little hands. Ages up to 3[em]. (Mar.) [/em]
