Dancing Hands tells the amazing story of a young girl whose piano playing catches the attention of President Abraham Lincoln. For Teresa Carreño, who fled war-torn Venuzualea and landed in Civil War Era United States, music brings her joy. She hopes she can share that joy with her audience at the White House.

Take a tour of Italy where you'll learn all about the country's landscape, culture, people, and more. Active island volcano, gondolas in Venice's canals and ancient ruins-there’s so much to see! A special section introduces Italy's capital, language, population, and flag.

Looking to get your young reader started on the piano? I can’t recommend the Faber Piano Method enough. Clear, uncluttered pages with extension activities built into every lesson, this is my go-to for all young beginner piano players!
Music Library hopes you’ll look for these titles at your local independent bookstore or public library!
