Piano Fingers by Caroline Magerl

Bea is from a big, noisy family who make all sorts of noisy noises! But when will Bea's own special music start? Isla and Bea are two sisters from an uber-musical family. Big sister Isla plays the violin and Bea is waiting for her music to start. She yearns to play the piano like an angel. With the help of Maestro Gus, the cat ghost of the piano, Bea will make her sparkling debut.

It’s a beautiful and heart-warming story, but that’s not allThe artwork is ethereal with a wondrous sense of space and light, homely and warm mottled colours, and delightful character expressions. A truly stunning picture book. * The School Reading List *
