The third title in the Shebam! series takes readers on a voyage of discovery, exploring an essential instrument from every angle: a picture-book deep-dive into the mechanics of the piano. Press a key, and it makes a sound. A simple action that is, in reality, far more complex than it seems! From the hand of writer Françoise Laurent, this book is lucid, alive, and well-conceived in its step-by-step, thematically organized survey (inventor, mechanism, repertoire, manufacture, etc.) The breezy style and dreamy colors of Karine Maincent's illustrations light up this overview of the piano.
