This book taught me a lot about Jewish people. But a lot about music too. I would read it, but if you're one of those people who hates to read a bunch of details, and doesn't like long books. I wouldn't choose this book.
BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!!!
I read this with my Mom. Then we went to the American Jewish Museum in Philadelphia to see an exhibit on Bernstein. I actually knew more about him than was in it from this book! It was cool to see some of his music and letters.
This book was great!! I learned lots of good musical Leonard Bernstein History. It even has sheet music so I could even play it on the piano. TOTALLY recommend this.
I like this whole book! It was informative and easy to read. I would lend it to my friends, and I think my dad and my music teacher would like it too! Solomon, Kid Advisory Committee
