by Chris Raschka; Chris Raschka (Illustrator)
John Coltrane's classic song "Giant Steps" is performed by raindrops, a snowflake, a box, and a kitten. This ingenious tribute to one master (jazz saxophonist John Coltrane) by another (author and illustrator Raschka) is a deft lesson about music and art. Full-color illustrations.
Summary
You may be surprised
at the tricky music
a box,
a snowflake,
some raindrops,
and a kitten
can make.
Right before your eyes.
And on the pages
of this book.
There is someone
backstage
watching, encouraging
our performers
but keeping them
under control.
Why not
listen along?
