"Nannerl Mozart's twelfth-birthday wish is to become a famous composer. She's already considered a brilliant musician, touring eighteenth-century Europe with her little brother Wolfgang and playing for queens and kings in the great courts. But Papa doesn't take her seriously as a composer, Mama usually has a list of chores for her, and Wolfi always manages to steal everybody's attention. Can Nannerl defy everyone's expectations and capture some of the spotlight that shines on her brilliant younger brother?"-- No library descriptions found. |

This was a lovely read. Though geared to a younger audience (middle grade, I would guess), I enjoyed learning about this young composer I'd never heard of before. Nannerl was a feisty young lady and a skilled musician. The portrayal of her in this book was a delight.
The details of the tour were my favorite part. All of the nobles/dignitaries Nannerl met were interesting, and the plot was intriguing.
I would recommend this to readers who enjoy middle-grade historical fiction. I received a free copy from NetGalley for reviewing purposes. ( )
