Poltarnees, Welleran. A Blessing of Music. Seattle, WA: Laughing Elephant, 2003.
This is a picture book that describes what makes music so special. It contains various historic pictures of music making from the 19th century, and thus can be related to history. It is engaging and inspiring, reminding the reader of what makes music such a universal language and what makes it so awe inspiring.
This book is a very easy read, and thus would be a very good assignment for struggling readers. English Language Learners would also benefit from this book by being able to see the pictures in the book. I would not have the entire class read this book but I would rather assign it to individual students and have them read it as homework.
