Description
Ding, ding, plink! Minnie’s fingers flutter over the keys, her bow bobbing in time with the music. She is practicing for a recital tomorrow, and she is determined to get the tricky part right. The neighbors have heard the same eight bars forty times this afternoon. Nobody minds, though, because every time she finally gets it right, she laughs so happily that the whole street laughs with her.
This Artoria Minnie is a treasure for anyone who grew up loving Disney characters. She makes a wonderful gift for a piano student celebrating a first recital, a music teacher, a Disney collector or a mother and daughter who share a love of both. Displayed on top of a real piano, in a curio cabinet among other Disney pieces or on a child’s bookshelf, she plays a silent tune that everyone can hear.
