MID, SEC: Books on composers (series?)

[Rena Deutsch <renadeutsch@WORLDNET.ATT.NET>]

We are looking to expand our biographies of musicians. We recently bought
the musician books in the Chelsea series, Introducing Composers, which we
like.  However, the series only has a limited number of musicians (Bach,
Beethoven, Chopin, Gershwin, Mozart, Stravinsky, Verdi, Vivaldi).

We need books that are written for middle school or low-level high school,
not adult biographies which the students definitely will not read.

A lot of the books I have seen in the public library that I've liked are out
of print.

Any suggestions?
