The Caldecott Honor book, now in paperback! With mournful moan and silken tone, itself alone comes ONE TROMBONE... Then a trumpet joins in to become a duet; add a French horn and voila! you have a trio -- and on it goes until an entire orchestra is assembled on stage. Lloyd Moss's iresistible rhymes and Marjorie Pricemans's energetic illustrations make beautiful music together -- a masterpiece that is the perfect introduction to musical instruments and musical groups, and a counting book that redefines the genre.
The cover is wonderful- Rupert is on top of an outcrop rock in a Welsh looking Snowdonia like scene. In his hand he is clutching the straps of a camera in a case. Dinky the Cat is to his left and Algy Pug and a rabbit look on. When you open the book out and look at the back cover together with the front you get the full beauty of the scene and the wonderful composition that was the genius of Alfred Bestall who's signature is written on the foot extreme left. Bill Badger and Edward Trunk are climbing after him and on a further rock sits Tom Pied Piper's son together with Margaret the little girl from Robin Down from the story `Rupert and the Distant Music'.
