Un Concert d'Été Au Clair de Lune

About this book

Xiaomi will never forget the magical sounds she heard one hot summer evening when the power went out in her family's apartment building. It happened at day's end while her parents were preparing dinner. Her father lit candles while suggesting they take out their musical instruments and descend to the yard to perform for their neighbors. He played the erhu and her mother the accordion while she danced. The songs made their way into each home, and soon, everyone joined the concert, laughing and singing under the moonlight: a joyful, music celebration that brought them together. In addition to an illustrated story in French, this book is accompanied by a CD featuring recordings of the narrated story and the theme song along with unique code for the digital download of the audio.
