A bittersweet coming of age book about a young English girl that visits France during the summer as an exchange student. She experiences another culture firsthand, explores her own identity and learns the true meaning of friendship and love. I first read the book in 7th grade and always come back to it. I probably always will.

I've never been a true fan of music history, but I had to read this for one of my classes. Surprisingly,I found it to be a quite interesting biography on Mozart because of its easy content.I would recommend this book to anyone who'd like a chronicle of Mozart's life in less than 150 pages. It's worth it!

Many good quaility pictures included for illustration. Written in a Light-hearted manner and is easy to read. The general schubert's life is discussed quite comprehensively although no suprise brought for a "schubertian". The musical aspects of the composition are often only superficially touched.
