Why read it?
1 author picked Playing at the Border as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Yo-Yo Ma has always been such a role model and inspiration for me. I passionately believe that music is a unifying force, bridging differences. This picture book provides a lens into Yo-Yo Ma’s legacy, passion, and heart in a poetic and illustrative manner. I read this book to a kindergarten class and they were drawn into the story and even requested to listen and watch some of his performances.
From Kali's list on to introduce kids to music.
