This picture-book biography of violin virtuoso Itzhak Perlman will
inspire young readers to follow the melody within themselves
 Before becoming one of the greatest violinists of all time,
Itzhak Perlman was simply a boy who loved music. Raised by a poor
immigrant family in a tiny Tel Aviv apartment, baby Itzhak was
transformed by the sounds from his family’s kitchen
radio—graceful classical symphonies, lively klezmer tunes, and
soulful cantorial chants. The rich melodies and vibrant rhythms
spoke to him like magic, filling his mind with vivid rainbows of
color. After begging his parents for an instrument, Itzhak threw
his heart and soul into playing the violin. Despite enormous
obstacles—including a near-fatal bout of polio that left him
crippled for life—Itzhak persevered, honing his extraordinary
gift. When he performed on the Ed Sullivan Show sat only 13,
audiences around the world were mesmerized by the warmth, joy, and
passion in every note. Gorgeously illustrated with extensive back
matter, this picture-book biography recounts Itzhak’s childhood
journey—from a boy with a dream to an internationally acclaimed
violin virtuoso.
