Welcome to the Symphony: A Musical Exploration of the Orchestra Using Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 Hardcover – Picture Book, October 27, 2015

There is no plastic tab to pull out to start the batteries. Below the battery case is a black switch that if you look carefully says on and off. Once I found that it was off to the orchestra! My 9 year old wants to be a maestro when she grows up and this was so bright and fun. Also it wasn't too loud or too soft@ Great buy.

This book is nicely written. Has beautiful illustrations and the sound buttons are easily used. Its got a nice storyline and the pages are good quality. Super nice book for a older child maybe 4-5 years old. My 9month old just tried to rip it.

A beautiful introduction to instruments! My pre-school nieces love playing with it to hear all the sounds.

Fun book. Good instruction

This book is my 2 year olds biggest obsession. She’s been asking for it multiple times a day for over a month since I bought it. This is brilliant. Best kids book I’ve ever bought. Rather than wanting to watch TV, she only wants to watch videos of symphonies and press the buttons in the book when different instruments come on screen. We’ve probably had well over 100 hours of entertainment from this book.

My 2-year-old grandson LOVES this book and entertains himself in his bed in the morning by playing the music and looking at the pages for up to an hour. The first book he wants to read in the evening too. “Bate-HO-ven” is his favorite composer :).

This book was a fun way to explore the symphony, and all the different instruments! The added audio learning from the buttons really brings it to life. My kids have loved hearing the instruments and comparing them.
