I thought this was the most adorable and inspirational book of 32 pages for kids. I read it in one sitting. I wished I could've read it to my nine year old son, since it has three of his favorite things involved reading, pictures and music, but it was his bedtime and he had already gone to sleep before I started reading it.

Excellent use of the T sound and story
