            Melanie Smith has studied music since the age of three. Her  training has been predominately on the violin and piano,  however, she also plays the viola, cello, and guitar.  Throughout her violin career, Melanie studied classical,  fiddle, and jazz violin, as well as performed with the  Edmonton Youth Orchestra, as a member of a quartet, and  as a soloist.  The idea for this book arose from Melanie's  experience as a violin teacher for young children. She found  she needed a theory book that was specifically designed to  complement violin instruction, while still allowing theory to be  engaging and fun for her students.  Melanie holds a degree  in Psychology from the University of Alberta and has an  After Degree in elementary education. Melanie lives in  Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
