The Man with the Violin

The Story About This Book Is Amazing
Every Writer Should View This Trailer



Published on May 31, 2013
THE MAN WITH THE VIOLIN is a picture book based on a true story: in January 2007, famous violinist Joshua Bell went undercover as a street musician and played a free concert in a Washington, D.C., metro station. Over a thousand people passed by as he played, but only seven stopped to listen for more than a minute. Joshua Bell noticed that children often wanted to stop, but their parents hurried them along. This picture book, written by Kathy Stinson and illustrated by Dusan Petricic, imagines what the subway concert might have been like from the perspective of one of those children.

In this video, author Kathy Stinson and illustrator Dusan Petricic discuss the making of the book. For more information on the book, please visit http://www.annickpress.com/Man-with-t...
