Twelve-year-old Oliver Bloom has a problem. A really big problem. Make that two problems. It feels like nobody at school ever notices him besides an annoying girl Mirjana and even more annoying boys who torture him with their annoying pranks. His bigger problem: with only four weeks left to finish a school project he should have been working on since September, he still has no clue what he is going to do it on. That is, until meets a rebellious college dropout who shows Oliver that his extraordinary one-in-ten-thousand musical talent - perfect pitch - could hold the key. With his new teacher's help, Oliver recruits his friends (and enemies) for a rag-tag orchestra that would make Ludwig van Beethoven flip in his grave. This book is for all those kids (and kids at heart) who know what it's like to watch from the sidelines as the popular kids at school enjoy all the attention. Oliver proves even a nerdy non-jock can bask in the glory of success when you set a goal, work hard to achieve it, and maybe even gain the power to inspire. The book includes eight pages of music theory illustrations on staff lines and some fun facts about the most famous classical composers, all from a kid's perspective, making it a great resource for children and music teachers alike.
