Sharing the story of the brilliant cellist and steadfast advocate for peace, Pablo Casals, in a picture book beautifully illustrated by Catalan artist Mariona Cabassa.
- “A lyrical tribute to a Catalan child who grew up to become one of the 20th century’s most renowned cellists.” ~KIRKUS REVIEWS
- “Mihaly’s lyrical text sings and dances with alliterative phrases like ‘tender and trembling’ and ‘beautiful and beguiling.’ The back matter includes a wealth of information, including author and illustrator notes, a time line, additional details, listening suggestions, and other sources. A moving choice for picture book–biography collections.” ~BOOKLIST
- “Music and Silence introduces children to a man who was not just a master of the cello, but a remarkable model of sacrifice and artistic protest.” Zinn Education Project (recommended)
