This is a fun story that explores a day at home with Mum preparing all meals whilst Reece makes a lot of noise using a variety of instruments.
There is predictable, repetitive text, that would make this an enjoyable read along / read together text.
Suitable for a 0 – 6 year old audience who would enjoy the sounds of the individual instrument noises, as well – for example:
Ding dong ding
Ding dong daloom
Tootle di
Tootle dum
Cling clang clash,
Cling clang cloom!
It is also a great introduction to instrument types, from drums to violin.
The illustrations are plain and simple, and the characterisation of expressions are well done, particularly the cat who I think expresses Mum’s true, inner feelings.
