Genre: Historical Fiction and Biography Media: Pencil, Pastels Use: Continuous read aloud that I use over the span of 3 to 4 days when introducing some of the historical realities of German prison camps. Critique: This is a beautiful story that teaches its reader that sometimes we overlook the things that are most important in our lives, that bring us the most joy, such as music. It is border line historical fiction though as it describes the life of the French composer Olivier Messiaen and how his life is transformed by his desire for music in his life even during WW2. I can't say that all of this information on his biography would be completely accurate as the intended audience is most certainly younger. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
