I love music and as such, I wanted to see if this book delivers on what it promises: making music easy for little kids. And to my pleasure, it does! With easy-to-understand examples, author David Weiser introduces the concepts of rhythm, pitch and tempo. He uses his background as a keyboard programmer to make sure children understand the basics and the importance of regular practice. There was just one part that I felt he could have touched upon: if there are 8 notes in a musical scale, why does a guitar have only 5 of those? I'm sure at least some children will ask this query. But this minor idea aside, the book is pitch perfect! Having so many animals in the story is an added bonus for the little ones. 
The story is told in rhythmic verse, and, not surprisingly for a book on music, the rhythm is accurate and balanced throughout without seeming forced. The illustrations are really cute. 
Thank you, NetGalley and BookBaby, for the Advanced Review Copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
