Little Rat Makes Music, by Monika Bang-Campbell, Illustrated by Molly Bang
Reviewed by Liz Gomes
Little Rat wants to learn how to play the violin and make wonderful music like what she hears in concerts. But for her to do so, she needs to practice, which is not so easy, it is boring and her violin can make horrible noises.
This inspiring tale tells how Little Rat, while learning to play the violin, goes through some difficulties, but after a lot of practice, she can create beautiful music.
A great story for parents who wants to teach their children how ‘practice makes perfect’.
You can find Little Rat Makes Music in the Children’s Library with the I CAN READ books under EB.
