An original introduction to music for younger children: discovering instruments and journeying into the history of music.

Caroline Laffon provides an eleven-chapter overview of instrument families, their history, and the connections between them. She composes a playful and educational score to which Gaia Stella brings poetry, a flair for color, and a sense of pictorial harmony. Each chapter comprises an introduction, three independent standalone paragraphs, and a riddle zooming in on an unexpected instrument.
