Ben's Trumpet by Rachel Isadora

5.0

The artwork in this diverse beginning story is amazing. It captures the mood of a hot city night and the jazz club groovin’ out hits. Each page is its own tone. It conveys the mood of Ben, our character. It is also Escher-like at points. I love it.

Ben lives close to the zig zag jazz club and he loves the music. He has his imaginary trumpet and he is always playing that for his family. He plays sitting everywhere and he is always hanging around the jazz club listening. He loves the trumpet most. The trumpet player sees him and takes a liking to him. I found this to be a fantastic story.

The niece enjoyed the artwork here. She thought the story was good. She gave this 4 stars. The nephew laughed at the naked baby in the story, of course. He thought this story was interesting. He gave this 3 stars.
