And There Was Music

Kids' Book of the Week , May 19, 2025
"When you listen to music, your heart changes rhythm. Can you hear it?" asks And There Was Music. This picture book is bursting with many types of song, including a brass band in New Orleans, Irish folk music, flamenco, didgeridoo, and even astronaut Wang Yaping playing a guzheng (Chinese zither) on the International Space Station! Simple text describes how music can move us, connect us with others, recall memories, and much more, while vibrant illustrations celebrate the beautiful ways music rings out around the globe.
