Music Room Reads Bio:
We're a team of dedicated music educators with a shared passion for integrating the magic of picture books into the music room experience. We believe in the power of narrative, using picture books as tools to engage students in meaningful musical exploration. Whether it's a whimsical tale about a musical journey or a heartwarming story of self-discovery through song, each book we select serves as a gateway to deeper musical understanding and connection. We love sharing new books, creating resources and giving music educators monthly book recommendations on our Instagram page @musicroomreads.
