World Kid Lit Month 2021: VENEZUELA

VENEZUELA: 

Dancing hands: how Teresa Carreño played the piano for President Lincoln. 

By Margarita Engle; Rafael López. 

As a little girl, Teresa Carreño loved to let her hands dance across the beautiful keys of the piano. If she felt sad, music cheered her up, and when she was happy, the piano helped her share that joy. Soon she was writing her own songs and performing in grand cathedrals. Then a revolution in Venezuela forced her family to flee to the United States.
