Around the World and Through the Years in MusicJoin Sarah and me as we talk little French books, music genres, bonding experiences, sound bytes, publishing challenges and more. An interesting conversation about how we can recreate things from our childhood, how music bonds, how we can trust kids with more sophisticated music than just music made for kids. Pirouette Kids Books Inspired by the little musical board books she grew up with in Paris, Sarah Breitenother was inspired to replicate those here in the US after moving here and having children of her own. The result of that dream are these sweet little board books with sound bytes that give kids just a little taste of various genres of music. These little books are small enough to tuck in a purse or diaper bag, durable for little hands and full of music that will create bonding experiences for kids and their significant adults. Get one or get them all! They make great baby shower gifts and young birthdays. Give the gift of a book and music all wrapped up in one little gem of a boardbook.
