“Matthew shared his wonderful story with our classrooms, bringing music, creativity, and imagination to life for our young learners. It was truly inspiring for our children to see someone who once sat in their seats return to follow his dreams and share his talents. 💛Moments like these remind us of the lasting impact of early learning and the power of storytelling. Thank you, Matthew, for giving back and inspiring the next generation!”

“I had the opportunity to read Albie’s Orchestra from front to back and was truly delighted. I shared the book with our lead teachers and children, and they enjoyed it as well. I strongly believe that the earlier children are introduced to learning and the arts, the more they grow to appreciate them.

I plan to share this book with our Executive Director to explore the possibility of ordering two copies per classroom. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful resource with us.”

A Happy Moment: Book Checked Out 

“Seeing Albie’s Orchestra being checked out makes me incredibly happy. Knowing that kids can pick up the book and explore it is what this project is all about.”
