Baby Bach: A Classical Music Sound Book is a simple board book with an assortment of animals depicted playing various instruments on each page spread. There is no story, just the title of a work by Bach and a very short musical excerpt from that work (approximately 6 seconds). Six works are included:
I do like that the illustrations of animals playing instruments matches what is heard in the excerpt, and a really young child who can push the buttons on each page might enjoy just flipping through and listening, but I would have loved to see some kind of story or additional information to accompany the music. And even though I understand the space constraints with including audio snippets, the super short bits are not enough to get much of a sense of the piece of music or learn to appreciate it.
