Written by John Lithgow & illustrated by C.F. Payne [Ohio]
The musical prodigy Farkle McBride tries a number of instruments before discovering that conducting the orchestra makes him happy. 40 pages
"Lithgow's nimble verse with a limerick's beat sparkles as he introduces readers to the various instruments and their sounds. Payne's outrageously droll mixed media illustrations, with their blend of caricature and realism, recall Kathryn Hewitt's work in Lives of the Musicians." -Publishers Weekly (Ages 4-8)
