ROAR-chestra! is a marvellous book that contains a lot of musical terms.

If you want to teach young kids all about the world of music, this is a great book to start! I always found musical theory boring when I was a kid, so a book like this would have been the perfect addition to our music classes and band practices. Allergro, staccato! So many ways to show musical terminology is an engaging way. Add in animals for even more fun, and you've got one winning book!

I enjoy the illustrations on top of the story. They are colourful and goofy, which is just how I'd like a book like this! Plus, there's also some descriptions on how to pronounce these words at the back too!

Four out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and Kids Can Press for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review. ( )

As someone who knows music and musical terms, I loved seeing animals "depict" the words shared. I mean animals stampeding to show "allergro?" It's genius right?

It does NOT work in storytime and that is okay. I think this audience is honestly great for a music teacher! ( )

GREAT!!!!! ( )

This is a great book for introducing tough musical terms to young children. I recommend it for all music teachers and elementary libraries. It's also fun for everyone because the brilliant illustrations and alliteration and onomatopoeia make it a good read-aloud. ( )
