In this tenth book in the successful Gus and Grandpa series, Gus dreads his piano lessons and muffs his recital but begins to enjoy playing the piano when Grandpa joins him on his violin. Mills hits her usual high notes in depicting Gus's feelings and warm relationship with Grandpa; Stock's loose images shaded with watercolors are the perfect accompaniment.
