| The Flute Player / La flautista Written By Robyn Harbert Eversole This book list for over 75.00 on amazon as the collectors edition Ages 4^-7. As a flute player plays songs of nature on the fifth floor of an apartment building, an old couple on the fourth floor hear the whistling of a cold wind, a woman on the third hears the sound of the sea, and a boy on the second hears the wailing of a ghost. But on the first floor, where the windows are shut, a little girl hears nothing but quiet. Taking her flute to be repaired, the flute player meets the little girl and lets her try to play the broken flute. The little girl unclogs it by blowing out butterflies that will flutter outside the apartment building, goose feathers for a quilt for the old couple, fish to fill an aquarium for the woman who longs for the sea, an owl that hoots like a ghost (but is not scary) for the boy, and a nightingale for herself so that she will always hear music. The expressionistic, mixed-media illustrations rendered in acrylic, gouache, pencil, and collage provide a harmonious visual accompaniment to the story, which is presented in both English and Spanish. Annie Ayres When a flute's owner believes it to be in need of repair, a little girl blows out butterflies, an owl, two fish, a nightingale, green leaves and a great bunch of goose feathers.
La dueña de una flauta lleva su flauta a reparar, una niña se la pide prestada, comienza a soplarla fuertemente y de repente empiezan a salir pequeñas mariposas, un buho, dos peces, un ruiseñor, hojas verdes y un gran manojo de plumas de ganso.
