Description
Lentil wants to learn to sing, but no matter how hard he tries, he can't hit the right note. Undeterred, he finds an alternative way to make music - the harmonica.
As Lentil's skills improve, his melodies become a welcome addition to the town's atmosphere. When a special celebration is planned for the return of Colonel Carter, Lentil's music plays a key role in bringing everyone together. But not everyone is pleased with the festivities, and Lentil must find a way to share his gift with those who need it most.
This charming picture book tells the story of a young boy's perseverance and creativity, brought to life by the acclaimed author and illustrator Robert McCloskey.
