We used this book with school and it was a bit hard to keep up with as we were given the chapter titles/ story lines to read rather than chapter numbers. For anyone looking for the titles here they are:
1 - The Little Sweep
2 - The Magic Flute
3 - Hansel and Gretel
4 - The Flying Dutchman
5 - La Cenerentola
6 - Orpheus and Eurydice
7 - Christmas Eve
