Summary: "Make music with this hands-on introduction to the four instrument families—drums, horns, strings, and voice—in this board book series by a world-renown music educator.
What do a guitar, a harp, and a piano have in common? They are all strings! This first introduction begins with a simple explanation of what defines a string instrument. Young readers are then invited on a global exploration of a variety of different stringed instruments and are encouraged to find strings of their own in the world around them. Includes a bound-in string to strum, and a visual glossary.
 Each title in the THIS IS MUSIC series features an interactive novelty musical element that invites the reader to "play" the book!" (Permabound 2023)

Review: I would recommend this book. It's a great introduction to what string instruments are and the rest of the This is Music series would be a great tool in a preschool music classroom to have students learn more about the different types of instruments.
