Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW
"Inviting illustrations and peppy text combine to make this book a winner for beginning music enthusiasts."
–
School Library Journal "
Orchestra is to my mind a delightful and informative book that will appeal to music beginners, no matter whether they're children or grown-ups. Avalon Nuovo and David Doran should be congratulated for the charming book they created and Flying Eye Books for publishing it. A real joy from beginning to end and what I think will make a splendid Christmas present for a young music fan."
