Review      ★★★★★"Outstanding illustrations will attract children to Rhythm Rescue, especially the shining and sometimes reflective eyes in portrait close-ups while the wonderfully imaginative story by author Vicky Weber will keep them entertained. What a wonderful way to keep children entranced--they can help summon the main character's special powers! Children--and parents--will enjoy clapping to the interactive clapping rhythm "Ta, Ti-ti" or "1, 1-and," which activates the main character's superpowers of strength and flight. This book takes readers on a journey during a storm filled with obstacles, fallen trees, and raging rivers. Can Tala help the police officer? Can she fly high enough to catch the tree from falling on Nina's house? You'll have to read it to find out.I love how you can see reflections in the eyes of some close-up illustrations of Rhythm Rescue. Illustrator Geneviève Viel-Taschereau has created some awesome, full-color artwork filled showing the emotions of the main character Tala and her friend Nina. Author Vicky Weber has created a fun adventure that takes readers on a journey filled with challenges that Tala conquers with a special clapping pattern. Will she need to summon her strength and demonstrate how strong she can be? Or will we help activate her flying skills to solve a problem by clapping to a different rhythm? I think every school library, public library, and even home library would benefit by having this book on the shelf. Entertaining story plus outstanding illustrations equal wonderful book." -Readers Favorite, 5 stars★★★★★"I've just discovered a collection of colorful and engaging books by a real-live music educator by the name of Vicky Weber! I've seen four of them so far and I hope there are many more to come. In the books, Ms. Weber takes on teaching the basic elements of music and creativity through fun stories and interactive activities that will liven up any classroom while getting the job done. The job? Learning about rhythm and tempo, how to play the recorder, and even simply embracing the creativity just waiting to be discovered in every child.Speaking of creative, the books are beautifully illustrated by several different truly talented artists, Masha Klot, Zoe Mellors, and Genevieve Viel-Taschereau. Of the four books I've seen it is hard to say which is my favorite. Lazlo Learns Recorder features a Lemur who overcomes his fear of making a fool of himself and gets excited about learning to play the recorder. In Rhythm Rescue superhero Tala needs your students to clap new rhythms to help Tala reach her destination. Tiger Tempo contains an earworm of a rhyme that helps children learn by acting out different tempo markings. But perhaps my favorite is The Song Garden in which a child named Calla discovers and embraces the unique, creative individual she is and learns to celebrate that creativity through her own compositions. I think your pre-k to 2nd graders are going to especially love these books!" -John Jacobson, Music Educator, Musical Composer, and Author of Music Express Magazine
