Marvin Makes Music

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jim Madsen. This autobiographical picture book relates how, from early childhood, Hamlisch heard music in everything. The story focuses on young Marvin's disdain at practicing classical music instead of playing his own compositions, as well as his Julliard audition, which was punctuated with semi-comical mishaps. Madsen's slick illustrations follow the story closely. Lyrics to and a CD of "The Music in My Mind" is included.
