Description

“Engaging. . . . The text and illustrations exude the glamour, passion, and lyricism of opera.”―Publishers Weekly

Jane Rosenberg’s delightful retellings for children of the best operas―whether the tales are read as introductions to a opera or to relive a production already seen, art and text combine to present a clear working out of plot, scene, and character. Small children in particular will revel in reading the stories―or having them read―both as lovely fairy tales and to assist them share within the magic of an actual dramatic performance.

Here are the gaiety of The Barber of Seville and the lavish spectacle of Aida. Sets, costumes, and lighting are re-created to present the real flavor of authentic productions and to approximate, as fully as imaginable, the revel in of attending the opera oneself. 44 illustrations, 29 in color
