A book requiring a dedicated reader.

The premise of this picture book is intriguing. Imagine a dancer, a composer and an artist working together on a project. The project becomes Appalachian Spring. The book has a great deal of potential but somehow it manages to fall flat. It seems disjointed perhaps because the text keeps shifting from present to future tense. Overall, I think it will still be useful in the right situation but I think it is going to take a dedicated adult pushing the book to get it into the hands of the right child reader. Not recommend for general purchase.
