    Advance Praise for Musical Instruments from Around the World:

    "This is the resource I have been searching for! Most music appreciation resources for kids are Eurocentric, so it is very refreshing to have a resource that introduces kids to instruments around the world, using kid-friendly language and wonderful visuals." - Leanna Guillén Mora, homeschooler,  founder of Multicultural Kid Blogs

    "This book provides concise, informative descriptions of nine musical instruments originating from different parts of the world. Each description includes text in English and a second language, and each page has a colorful illustration, making this book a useful resource for ESL students. In addition to learning English, the reader will learn about the history of these musical instruments and gain an appreciation for the music of other cultures."  - Mary Sanders, Chief Librarian, Morris County Library

    "I loved reading about the different instruments from around the world and the history behind each one of them.  The illustrations and fun descriptions will inspire many young future musicians.  As a music teacher, I highly recommend this book for your child!" - Wyman Wong, Middle School Instrumental Music Teacher, Basking Ridge NJ
