Description

Age 3+

Luke won't play the trumpet Grandpa gave him until he discovers a seed Grandpa sent will only grow when it hears music.

Luke the frog is too busy to play the trumpet his grandfather sent him, and when Grandpa sends him a seed, Luke is frustrated that it is slow to grow - until it responds to the music of a band of street musicians. Luke and the musicians play until the magical tree is tall and strong, and until Luke loves playing his trumpet.

The Music Tree is a story about patience and effort with delightful retro/folk art style illustrations.
