UC Hannah Waters and the Daughter of Johann… por Barbara Nickel
My daughter absolutely loved this book, as well as Nickel's other book about Mozart's sister. I can see why she enjoyed it, but found some of the dialogue stilted and scenes unbelievable, especially the spontaneous hoedown at a 6th grade assembly.
The older sister of the talented Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Nannerl, feels overshadowed by her brother. As she tours Europe with her family, she does all she can to prove she is a composer in her own right.
This was a lovely read. Though geared to a younger audience (middle grade, I would guess), I enjoyed learning about this young composer I'd never heard of before. Nannerl was a feisty young lady and a skilled musician. The portrayal of her in this book was a delight.
The details of the tour were my favorite part. All of the nobles/dignitaries Nannerl met were interesting, and the plot was intriguing.
I would recommend this to readers who enjoy middle-grade historical fiction. I received a free copy from NetGalley for reviewing purposes.… (más)

Mixes fiction with history. You could be doing a history project and enjoying a good read at the same time.
