Customer Reviews

Good reading, but...
This book may be well received by young readers; however, the author uses some words that may be unclear to them. For example, "waistcoat" is used to describe his dress for school and some musical terms may need explaining. Also, there seemed to be no flow in telling the story. It was as if each two page spread was a mini-story in itself. Even so I think young readers might find it intersting.
