Elephant's Music
This is a playful yet important story about individual differences and finding ways to belong.
All of the animals in the forest can play an instrument, except Edward the Elephant. He tries, and he tries, but all he can do is make a terrible noise. So instead he feels happy just listening, and so much so, that he becomes the band’s biggest fan! After walking up late for a performance one day, Edward runs through the jungle . . . DUM DUM DUM DUM . . . and discovers that he is musical after all. He turns out to be the beat the band needed!

“Even a noisemaker can find a place in the band . . . . An agreeable lesson in inclusion.”—Kirkus Reviews
