Animal Band

Here’s one picture book that really rocks! With rhythm and rhyme, hip art, cool cats, and a menagerie of beasts who are hep to the beat, first time author/illustrator Christopher S. Jennings has produced a hit. His swinging story celebrates creativity, introduces an array of instruments, and encourages kids to make some sweet music of their own. When the humans have gone and the door’s tightly locked, what do the creatures left behind do? They grab the drums and the trumpet, a harmonica too, even pots and pans for the animal band! Soon the gang from the zoo’s joining in, too. But oh, no! There’s nothing left for Thomas the doggie to play not a thing to strum, blow, or bang. Can his friends help? Their imaginative solution soon has Thomas laying down an irresistible groove
