A Children’s Book Written by Starr Meneely, illustrated by Susan Merrick
What A Lovely Sound is a sweet and charming story about finding music in the sounds of nature. It encourages children to listen and use their musical imaginations. It’s a perfect story for young children in music classes, early lessons or at home.
Melody Jane’s story begins in a busy, noisy city where she here’s the noise of traffic and people coming and going.
She leaves the city and its bustling noise to travel to the countryside where she immediately notices how quiet it is.
Before long she begins to notice sounds around her - the sounds of nature. They are “just like music, what a lovely sound!”
