From Composer Highlights, an educational coloring book series, by Leonice Thompson Kidd. The pictures and text on each page of this interesting series tell the stories of  famous composers and their families-their lifestyles, travels, difficulties, accomplishments, compositions, and maps of significant places in their lives, as well as customs, clothing fashions, cities, buildings, instruments of their times. At the beginning of each book there is a page "Understanding These Words". By choosing the colors to complete the pictures, students invest some imagination and effort into the completed stories, aided by a few lines of narrative on each page.

Age 6 up. Good for studio, home school, classroom, camps, gifts or awards. (For class projects, different pages can be assigned to various students and then reassembled to complete a study of a selected composer.) Coloring Books are 8 ½ X 11 inches, 32 pages.
