Maestro Mouse and the Mystery of the Missing Baton

The Kennedy Center's Maestro Mouse, the world's greatest conductor, makes an unfortunate discovery when he takes the stage to lead his orchestra--his baton is missing! The children in the concert hall rush to search for it in every instrument and section of the orchestra. But will they find the lost baton? Will the concert then go on? Written in rhyming verse and brightly illustrated, the book teaches children about the orchestra and honors the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., and the National Symphony Orchestra, celebrating its 75th anniversary in 2005.
