(2) K-3 Maestro Petrini, a mouse, is page turner for the Metropolitan Opera's prompter. When cat Mefisto spots the maestro, a chase nearly ends in disaster; the power of music saves the day. Energetic crayon illustrations bring the opera's bustling backstage world to life. This new edition is slightly larger than the original, and the art seems brighter and clearer.
Reviewer: Terri Schmitz | Horn Book Magazine Issue: April, 1953
