Four seasons in one day

1 v. (unpaged) : col. ill. ; 30 x 27 cm.

"Press the note to hear Vivaldi's music."

Musicals notes on each page play a selection from Vivaldi's The four seasons when pressed.

"Warning: choking hazard--small parts. Not for children under 3 yrs"--Page [4] of cover.

"Quarto Knows"--Colophon.

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.
