5.0 out of 5 stars Cute and Great Introduction to Instruments, December 9, 2005

By	Lydia's Mommy (Roscoe, IL) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Animal Orchestra (Little Golden Treasures) (Board book)

This book is so sturdy and that is why it appealed to me in the library. But the story is super fun. It teaches kids to identify both animals and the instruments they play, with a fun rhyme that makes you able to hear the wonderful music in your imagination. My daughter, at one year of age, really seemed intrigued by the illustrations and I think she enjoyed the flow of the story.

By	C. Smith (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a wonderful book. It is written with rhyming sentences & has great illustrations by Richard Scarry. It introduces children to musical instruments. I enjoyed it as a child & memorized it & I can still recite it to this day. I think all children will love it.
