  ** I received this sample in the hopes that I would share my honest opinion of this product, no compensation was received. Review by Michelle**

If your looking to introduce your children to classical music this is the perfect gift. Simply Fantastic is a book accompanied by the Cd that introduces you to classical music.

Here is a brief description of the book:
A children’s guidebook to the fantastical characters and creatures found in classical music.

The works of Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Verdi, and others are introduced to children through the magical beings from legends and classic tales—including gnomes, fairies, witches, goblins, elves, and wizards—that inspired the composers. An original and interesting way for younger listeners to discover classical music, this book pairs three centuries of music history with stunning and evocative illustrations and includes a glossary of musical terms, a short biography of each composer, and a brief presentation of each extraordinary character. The accompanying CD features 20 excerpts from various recordings performed by world-class luminaries, including the London Philharmonic Orchestra, La Scala Chorus and Orchestra, and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields.

I Simply Fantastic to be informative but I must admit my children and I thought some of the illustrations were quite scary. Not all of them but some of them were. I enjoyed the book. You listen to the CD,pick a song and read a little story about the music. You can then go and read all about the composers. The CD stores safely in the back of the book.

Great CD for all music lovers and especially those of classical music. This would be a great gift for that hard to buy for piano or music teacher.
