I Spy a Freight Train: Transportation in Art by Lucy Micklethwait
My children love to play "I Spy" and even though they are little girls who usually could care less about things with wheels (rather than paws) they really liked this book.  I like the beautiful artwork that Micklethwait chose --the lesser known works of the great artists.

Mr. Beethoven Lives Upstairs
This is the first Classical Kids production I ever listened to and I think it is the best.  Young Christoph's life changes dramatically when Mr. Beethoven becomes a boarder at his house.  The story, charmingly told, is enhanced with beautiful excerpts of some of Beethoven's most well-known works.

$8.98 (cassette)

The Farewell Symphony
The Story of how Joseph Hayden came to write his famous Symphony #45.  My girls loved the story and the illustrations are fun.  This book is accompanied by a full-length CD recorded by the Orchestra of  St. Louis.
