Wonderful story

I just reread this book and found it just as emotional as the first time. One of the best stories I’ve ever read.

This book was like a piece of art!

Mr. Ablom wrote from such an unusual perspective. It drew me in and kept me fascinated and wanting for more. It was very touching.

Music, at least in my experience, opens and enlarges one’s heart.

I highly recommend this read!

Touching and Enlightening

Frankie Presto is different from Albom’s other books but it contains that unique power to make the reader think, reflect and grow. From one movement of Frankie’s life to the next the reader is drawn in - to learn about music, musicians, and life. Inspiring.

The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto

This book is a remarkable story that touched my very soul. I’m 63 years old, and it is my opinion, that the older a person gets, the more the lessons this story teaches hit home. The book itself is an entertaining story, and I believe anyone who reads it will enjoy it. But for people who have acquired a certain wisdom that can only come from aging, it is my opinion that they will be moved like I was. Like Frankie Presto, when we reflect on our lives, we will recall great burdens as well as great triumphs. But most of all, it is my hope that we will recall the great love we received from family, friends, children, and lovers. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Storytelling at its finest!

I wish all audiobooks were read so magnificently as a story like this. Mitch Albom tells his tale so believable with real cast of characters. Reminiscent of Forest Gump ...in Frankie’s interactions with historical musicians. Absolutely LOVED this audiobook!
