Accordionly: Abuelo and Opa Make Music by Michael Genhart
3.0
Music is a uniting force.
This book, based on the authors childhood, tells how the love of music, and music itself, is how two people who speak different languages can come together with music.
Both grandparents are from different cultures, one only speaks Spanish and the other only speaks, we suppose, German. They can not speak to each other, until the grandson brings out their accordions, and they both realize that they play the same instrument.
And that is the whole story. Cute enough book, just not ground-shattering.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
