Doodlebug & Dandelion

“WHAT A DOWNPOUR!” Mrs. Pinkley exclaimed, gazing out the wide front window. Outside, the world was awash with heavy rain. “We’ll have to cancel our New Year’s Eve Musical Gala in Palm Tree Park.” Her children, Doodlebug and Dandelion, groaned in dismay. Their mother had organized the event and signed up all the best musicians around. Plus, she’d hired a renowned opera singer, a real diva, with a divine, crowd-attracting voice. “Why don’t we bring the gala inside?” Mr. Pinkley suggested. “A house concert.” Now Doodlebug and Dandelion cheered. A musical house party sounded like tons of fun. “Let’s put all the performers in different rooms,” Dandelion suggested, “so people can go hear whatever kind of music they want.” The plan was getting better and better—music all over the house!…

Ice Music

EVERY WINTER IN Luleå, Sweden, a remote town located just beneath the Arctic Circle, people are treated to a special concert. It’s not like any concert or recital you might have been to. The concert hall is an igloo, and all the musicians play instruments made almost entirely of ice! These ice concerts have also traveled to places such as Beaver Creek, Colorado, and the Italian Alps. Tim Linhart sculpts instruments made entirely from ice except for the strings and a few small metal and wood parts. Linhart, who grew up in New Mexico and is a stone sculptor in warm months, creates his ice instruments in his garden in Sweden. It takes him about six weeks to create enough ice instruments, called ICEstruments, for a frozen orchestra. Linhart sculpts…

A Very Special Gift for Grandma

January 27 Dear Diary, Mom says it’s Grandma’s birthday next week. Jack says he’s going to make her something out of LEGO® blocks. Does Grandma even like that stuff? I want to give her something she’ll like. I know she really likes music because she always takes me to recitals at Carnegie Hall. The music’s nice, but I really like the bucket of peppermints they have in the front. You can just help yourself. My grandma always takes one just in case she coughs in the middle of the performance, but I grab a whole bunch. I need to think of something fast. It has to be really special and better than Jack’s gift. January 29 Dear Diary, Guess what? I know what to get my grandma. A birthday recital!…

The Sacrifice of the Rainbow Bird

THIS STORY IS from the early days of the world, when animals still talked to humans. The Sun and the Moon were already in place, as were most of the stars in the sky. But around this time, seasons had gradually settled upon the world, and the Earth’s creatures were bewildered by the changes—especially the long, cruel cold of winter. In those days, the world was having its first terrible winter, and everyone was suffering. The birds were trying to fly south but had little idea where to fly and where to rest. The field mice were still learning how to store up food—it still hadn’t occurred to them that they needed to hide the nuts and seeds they gathered. The bears, unskilled at hibernation, were waking up at all…
