"The Mozart Question" is a 2010 Rebecca Caudill Nominee and a story about a famous violinist's recollections about the Holocaust. A young reporter gets the once in a lifetime opportunity to interview the violinist but is told not to ask "the Mozart question". An untold story unfolds about the brutality of the Holocaust and I had never heard this aspect of the story before. I loved how the book had beautiful pictures that helped tell the story.

This was the second book on this year's Rebecca Caudill Nominee list that was focused on the Holocaust. Both books told of different groups who were targeted during this horrible part of history. I would definitely recommend both books to students. "The Mozart Question" was more appropriate for lower grades (3 - 5) and "Someone Named Eva" is more appropriate for higher graders (6+).
