Discover the spellbinding magic of Swan Lake in this musical retelling of the ballet - push the button on each beautiful scene to hear the vivid sound of an orchestra playing from Tchaikovsky's score.This tale of a prince, a beautiful swan princess and an evil sorcerer begins in a woodland clearing far, far away. It is Prince Siegfried's 21st birthday. He is playing games with his friends when his mother, the Queen, arrives to tell him he needs to stop having fun and start looking after the kingdom. Prince Siegfried dreams of running away.
He follows an enchanting flock of swans to a clearing by a lake, where four of the little cygnets begin to dance. The most beautiful swan transforms into the Princess Odette, who tells him that she has been cursed to turn into a swan by day and return to her natural form at night by the evil sorcerer Von Rothbart. As the prince and Odette dance, they begin to fall in love.
The story follows Prince Siegfried as he attends his birthday party, is tricked into proposing to Von Rothbart's daughter Odile and returns to the lake to battle the evil sorcerer. Will the prince be reunited with his swan princess?
As you and your little one journey through the magical scenes, you will press the buttons to hear 10 excerpts from the ballet's music. At the back of the book, find a short biography of the composer, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, with details about his composition of Swan Lake. Next to this, you can replay the musical excerpts and, for each of them, read a discussion of the instruments, rhythms and musical techniques that make them so powerful. A glossary defines musical terms.

Works great with soy milk
Amazing steamer with high volume capacity. I can make large lattes. I love that it let's you choose your temperature. I use soy milk, and it works perfectly every time.
When using at max temp, only a tiny bit of soy milk gets a little burnt on the bottom, and it scrubs right off. Since the little whipping tool comes off on the inside, it cleans very easily. I love that the little whipping tool is magnetically attached, too. It's super easy to work with and very secure.
My 8 year old uses this all on her own without issue, which proves how easy it is.
Highly recommend.

Great frother choice!
I love this thing! As a former barista, this frother does a wonderful job! I've done hot and cold foam and they held up great! Used oat milk once and that did a great job foaming up! It can take a few minutes for the foam, so when I start my coffee, I start the foam, too. It's also dishwasher safe, which I love.

Burns On The Bottom
The chocolate setting takes forever. The milk burns in the same spot on the cup no matter how I try and rotate the cup during the heating process. I expected more from the reviews.

love it but...
Overall I like this product. the only annoying thing is that you cant put milk on max because it will spill and make a mess. Everything else is good and is very easy so clean too.
