Our sticker books are just jam-packed with bite-sized bits of information all over the place, and this new title is no exception! Fun, informative, and engaging, this is one sticker book that you just need to check out!
We love classical music and opera; I know it's weird, but we just do. Side note: If you're also an opera lover, you may want to check out my free printable opera cards by clicking here or the image below.
This sticker book is just perfect for our family's interests! It includes opera, ballet, the history behind the music, and a fun timeline (who doesn't love a great timeline, right?). ;)
From the Usborne website:
A fascinating pictorial introduction to the increasingly popular world of classical music. What is classical music? Who were the celebrity composers and musicians of their day? These questions and many more are answered in this beautifully illustrated information sticker book. Internet links take you to samples of the music online. We are surrounded by classical music all the time and this books makes it accessible for all.
Take a look!

Check out the cool QR codes sprinkled throughout the book! You can scan these with your phone or iPad and listen to the music by the different composers!
The big images look lighter than what you would expect because the stickers go there. And if the text looks too light, it's really not. I took these pictures on my dining room table under those curly-cue light bulbs, so the color is a bit off. My apologies.
This book is internet-linked, which means that you can go to Usborne's master site, Usborne-Quicklinks.com, type in the title, select the page numbers you're interested in, and voila! A list of SAFE and fun recommended websites pop up! No more wasting precious time using search engines and having who-knows-what appear in front of young eyes. Our internet-linked books are time-savers and provide me, as the mama, with peace of mind.
Here's what it looks like when you go to the internet-linked site:
You can see at the top in the blue bar that these links are specific to pages 2-3 of this book. It has music available right there, as well as six SAFE websites that correspond to the information on pages 2-3. Seriously, how awesome is that?! I LOVE our internet-linked books!
Okay, back to our exclusive inside pictures:

I love, love, love the bite-sized chunks of knowledge on each page that Usborne is known for. This book is packed with interesting information that makes learning fun, but yet it doesn't seem overwhelming or tedious.
Learning about the orchestra!
Here's a glimpse of a sticker page. The stickers are so beautiful and vibrant, and I love how they're grouped by page numbers.
Friends, I am just SO excited about this sticker book! We study classical music in our homeschool, so we'll definitely be using this with our curriculum this year (and I can't wait!).
Classical Music Sticker Book is geared to ages 7 and up and has 32 regular pages plus 10 sticker pages. At only $8.99, it's a perfect price for each child to have his or her own! Classical music is beautiful and inspiring, and I believe every child should be exposed to it early to develop an appreciation for the music and composers. This sticker book is a great place to start! Click here to get your copies!
