The Music of Life: Bartolomeo Cristofori & the Invention of the Piano by Elizabeth Rusch

3.0

I appreciate the message, design and depth of detail in this book, though I'm not sure how kids would respond, and I think it's too lengthy for a read aloud. Appreciate the back matter, especially the author's detailing of how she used primary and secondary source materials for the information on each spread in the whole book. Good mentor for research. I also liked the musical deduction terms used to evoke mood on each spread.
