BOOK.
Stravinsky composed music that was
wildly popular, and Nijinsky was a fabulous dancer who was known world-wide.
However, both dreamed of doing something bigger and different. This story tells
of their meeting and what they created together.
It didn’t capture me as a
reader, and I wasn’t interested in the story-line at all. This could be used in
a music teacher’s classroom, but would not be necessary in a general library or
classroom teacher’s library.
