The Story Orchestra: Four Seasons in One Day: Press the note to hear Vivaldi's music (Volume 1) (The Story Orchestra, 1) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Discover what it would be like to travel through the four seasons in one day, following a little girl called Isabelle and her dog, Pickle, as they take on the adventure of a lifetime. As a sign of the changing seasons, Isabelle carries a little apple tree with her, and we see it bud, blossom and lose its leaves. Each spread features a musical note to press and a 10 second sound clip from the original score of Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Illustrated by artist Jessica Courtney-Tickle, the book also features a biography of Vivaldi at the back along with a guide to the music. This is the first title in a series of sound books that bring classical music to life for young children.
Manufacturer's note: please pull the white tab out of the back of the book before use. Sound buttons require a firm push in exact location to work, which may be hard for young children. All sound clips are 10 seconds long.

About the Author
JESSICA COURTNEY-TICKLE is an illustrator who graduated from Kingston University in July 2014. Her absolute favourite thing to draw or paint is nature, finding a focus on foliage of any kind as well as children's stories about adventure and exploration. She also has a penchant for drawing theatre from music makers to dancers and even singing animals. Jessica is most influenced by vintage picture books, travel posters and folk art as well as numerous painters and printmakers.
From School Library Journal
PreS-Gr 2—Readers follow Isabelle and her puppy Pickle as they go on an amazing, season-related journey in their neighborhood, accompanied by the sounds of Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons. Young children will enjoy the interactive experience of pressing musical buttons to "hear" the seasons as they see them interpreted through the vibrant and expressive illustrations. The end pages include a short biography of the famous composer. Children have the opportunity to hear the music again on the last page, with simple descriptions of each movement to explain how it represents a season. This book brings classical music to life for youngsters as they learn about the natural world. Because this resource requires a battery to work the music, it may be less than optimal for a library setting. VERDICT An interactive take on the seasons for those looking to introduce classical music to early elementary students.—Annette Herbert, F. E. Smith Elementary School, Cortland, NY
