Outstanding Read April 25, 2012
What an outstanding book that fills a niche for not only the young, but for opera lovers of all ages.
This GEM of a book is filled with action and suspense and the beautiful illustrations bring the words to life. Once I started reading, I couldn’t put the book down. Ms. Goldfarb out did herself and has a way with words. I could hear the music as I turned the pages. I can hardly wait to give “Benjamin’s Ring” to my granddaughter, so she can enjoy it as much as I did. Bravo to Ms. Goldfarb!!!!!

A Genuine “Ringer” April 25, 2012
“Benjamin’s Ring” is an absorbing tale for children and at the same time an ingenuously captivating re-telling of Richard Wagner’s four-part opera cycle, “The Ring of the Nibelungen.” Author Roz Goldfarb and artist Geoffrey Moss have created a narrative that combines suspense and pleasure. Of equal importance, it also demonstrates our eternal faith that, after grim setbacks and dangers, good ultimately triumphs. A genuinely satisfying piece!
