Why we like it

The Animal Orchestra concept is brilliant—it gives children characters to connect with whilst introducing them to music that might otherwise feel intimidating or unfamiliar.

The sound quality is very good, and the musical selections are perfect for little ears. It's the kind of book that creates genuine musical moments between parents and children, building appreciation for classical music from the very earliest age.
