The Classical Kids series makes dramatic tales come to life through the magic of the world's greatest composers. Each title focuses on the interaction between a famous composer and a young child. By combining historical facts relevant to the composer's life with a child's perspective, the series explores not only classical music, but the real life attributes, eccentricities and genius of the composers.

The arrival of an eccentric boarder turns a young boy's life upside-down. Ludwig van Beethoven has moved in upstairs! Follow a lively series of letters between Christoph and his uncle as the young boy learns to appreciate and understand the great composer and his music. Includes: Moonlight Sonata; Symphonies #5, 6, 7, 8, 9; Für Elise; Pathétique Sonata; and more.
