"In this volume, Jack and Annie visit Austria and help a young Mozart find his love of music again. I was really impressed by this volume, even though "Wolfie"'s antics were as obnoxious as they come. I thought the blend of history and magic was perfect and I liked that Jack and Annie sort of stumped into completing the mission, rather than purposefully going after something, as is often the case."

— Makani, 1/27/2014" This has introduced my 4 and 6-year-old to who Mozart was and now they know a little history when they hear his music (no we don't normally listen to a lot of classical - they actually recognized it on Disney's Little Einstein's! :)). Another great Magic Tree House book. A little fiction mixed with true history - fun! "
