"A reminder to stop, listen, and appreciate." - Kirkus Reviews Isabel the mouse plays the violin and dreams about beautiful sounds. Her siblings are also musicians and they all play music together. Every day, she takes a walk in the forest, searching for sounds she doesn't know yet. During her strolls, she finds different animals and insects who play beautiful tunes, but every time she tells her siblings about it, they look down on the new sounds she discovers. Will an encounter with a newly arrived band show them how to appreciate ‘different’ music? This title includes a few ideas for music education. A musical plea in favor of open ears, inclusion and diversity for little musicians ages 4 years and up.
"A reminder to stop, listen, and appreciate." - Kirkus Reviews "Mouse Music was a sweet book that tells the story of Isabel, a curious mouse who loves adventure and music. As she goes on her daily adventures, she encounters different animals and sounds. Excited by these she comes back to her brothers and sisters who are not interested in befriending those who are so different from them. When Isabel and the City Mice come together and collaborate, a beautiful new sound is found and her brothers and sisters realize the beauty in coming together to make a who new thing! I really like the illustrations of this book and think that it would be good for the 4 to 6 year olds in anyone's life!" - Epic Books "Fun colorful cut out illustrations, which follow a delightful little mouse through the forest to identify different sounds and how the mouse shares them with her siblings." - Bluffton Public Library "This is a beautiful children’s story about Isabel’s love for music. Isabel’s siblings are not as open to different types of music, but Isabel just can’t get enough. The illustrations are beautiful, and the color is very bright to hold the attention of my children. My 4-year-old daughter loved Isabel’s journey, and there are musical recommendations at the end of the book which my daughter loved doing!" - Williamson County, TN - School System
