Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

In September 1822, 10-year-old Christoph writes a letter to his uncle: "A madman has moved into our house". The "madman" is none other than Ludwig van Beethoven. In a unique approach that combines biography, fiction, and music, this book weaves true incidents in the composer's life into a fictional correspondence between a young boy and his uncle. Based on the award-winning recording. Full color.

The letters that ten-year-old Christoph and his uncle exchange show how Christoph's feelings for Mr. Beethoven, the eccentric boarder that shares his house, change from anger and embarrassment to compassion and admiration.
