MUST read!!!! What an amazing story based on an actual true event. This gorgeous picture book is based on the true story of Joshua Bell, the famous violinist who played a free concert in the Washington DC subway. More than a thousand commuters rushed by him, but only seven stopped to listen for more than a minute. Kathy Stinson has woven a heart-warming story that reminds us all to stop and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us. The vivid text combined with illustrations that pulse with energy and movement show the power of music and how it enriches our lives. (submitted by DS)
