(4) 1-3 Stepping Stone series. Illustrated by Robert Papp. In eighteenth-century Italy, Anna Maria's dying father makes her a violin to remember him by. When Anna Maria goes to live with the nuns and the composer Vivaldi in a Venice orphanage, a jealous girl throws the precious violin into a canal. Shefelman's character and plot development are a touch simplistic but make the book more appropriate for the age group. Text includes a historical note. Glos.
