The Child Mozart.
Mozart was a born musician, and he began to compose music and play when be was only five years old. Think of a little boy sitting down to a piano and playing pieces that his father thought so beautiful that they ought to be written, down and preserved, to be played by other people that love music. But little Mozart did ife, and his father copied whatever he played. Mozart would not allow anybody to interrupt him, or to make any noise in the room. In fact, nobody wanted to make any noise ; for he played so that everybody was only too anxious to listen to him. So fond of music was he that whenever his little toys were taken from One room to anther he always had somebody to play or sing so that he and whoever was with him might keep time to the music.
