Synopsis:

"Landau covers all the bases so that prospective musicians have the information they need to confidently answer each title's question. Standard components throughout include breakdowns of the origins, parts, and musical genres associated with the instruments. Also sprinkled in are stories about how some famous musicians got started (e.g., Jimi Hedrix and Taylor Swift in Guitar) alongside advice from other professionals regarding everything from practicing to getting through performance mishaps. Kids thinking about taking up an instrument will find the books helpful in their decision-making process." --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple
