The story depicts Eden's imaginary trip by boat to Fingal's Cave in Scotland. The author was inspired by Felix Mendelssohn's powerful music called "Herbrides", as well as the scenic cave in Scotland. Join Eden's adventure and visualize an orchestra performing the piece inside that cave! " The string section whooshes like water at sea Wind instruments hiss like the foam that flows free. The big drum is drumming, vibrating the cave. The swings in the music, they sound like the waves " The book includes two pages of suggestions for interactive activities with this story and the musical piece. These include dramatic activities, crafts, movement, a guided viewing of an orchestra on video and the use of percussion instruments. The ideas are also applicable for a group of children or a classroom setting.
