Recently, I received an e-mail from Elizabeth Wellburn, author of the colorful and captivating book Echoes From the Square by Elizabeth Wellburn. It is the beautiful story of cellist Vedran Smailovic, retold in this heartwarming children’s book.
The video below is a recording of Ms. Wellburn reading the story, accompanied by images from the book and music performed by violinist Tasmin Little and Vedran Smailovic himself.
Don’t you think students would love watching this? Be sure to stop by tomorrow for a special interview with Ms. Wellburn.
Looks like a sweet book!
Lovely. Left me wanting to get this charming and inspirational book to share with my students.
Paz.

And thanks also for the kind responses to the story,
