16.00

School is over and Marika, like all summers, joins her grandparents in the mountains. One morning, Marika accompanies her grandfather to the pasture and after having eaten on a beautiful flowery meadow, he tells her the story of his harmonica from which he never separates and which he plays often, especially for her. Marika discovers that her grandfather played in a blues band and that his musician friends were… a possum, a cat, an alligator, a snake, a pelican, a raccoon and two ducks. Each of them spoke a different language, but all were united by the passion for blues music. Marika will also get her first harmonica from her grandfather and will find friends musicians to form a band with.

An illustrated book that brings children to music with joy. With the QRCODE you can listen to the instruments and music of the grandfather’s blues band. Find out if you like blues music.
