Aida: The story of Verdi's greatest opera
Robert Lawrence
Hardcover
(Silver Burdett, March 15, 1938)
This is the form of the opera story for younger readers, authorized by the Metropolitan Opera Guild. A simple retelling of the story, with main themes introduced as part of the story. Fully illustrated in color by Barry Bart. The result is effective, though somewhat dated in manner. A good buy for the money. Probably you are familiar with the series, and know your market. -- Kirkus Reviews
