*This summer she has decided she is NOT going to play the violin and/or practice.
*This decision upsets her mother greatly and she doesn't understand why Rose is putting the instrument to the side.
*Rose and her mother take a summer trip to spend time with her grandparents.
*While visiting her grandma and grandpa, Rose gets to know some new freinds; some of which are from the present and one that may have come from the "past". What I Thought of It - Five Observations/Reflections... *I started the novel and abandoned after about fifty pages or so.
*My friend suggested I go back to the story and continue reading; so I did.
*I liked the plot better with the revisit, but overall I wasn't completely engaged and/or interested.
*The plot aspect of the character from the past was interesting and I enjoyed those sections of the story.
*I also appreciated the relationships Rose formed while visiting her grandparents.
Who Should Read It...
*I'm thinking if you know of a young reader who appreciates music and/or plays an instrument, they would be an ideal audience for the story. I think it is geared towards readers in grades five through eight. Happy Reading!
