==Writings== Isserlis is the author of two books for children on the lives of famous composers: the first is ''Why Beethoven Threw the Stew'' (Faber, 2001), and the second is ''Why Handel Waggled His Wig'' (Faber, 2006). He has also written three stories that have been set to music by Oscar-winning composer [[Anne Dudley]].
