Bookroo's summary

Clarinet and Trumpet's friendship hits a sour note when Oboe joins the band, causing a rift.

Discover how music can mend even the most discordant relationships in this pun-filled, interactive tale.

From the publisher

A charming and funny picture book featuring the harmonious friendship between Clarinet and Trumpet. But what happens when their friendship falls flat? Featuring a music-making shaker built into the book! Perfect for fans of Stick & Stone and Spoon. Clarinet and Trumpet are friends from the very first note. But their friendship falls flat when a new woodwind–Oboe–sets the tone in the music room. Trumpet tries everything to get Clarinet’s attention again, but Clarinet doesn’t change her tune. The story crescendos until the woodwinds face off against the brass section in an ear-splitting musical duel. How will Clarinet and Trumpet bring the band back together again and save their melodious friendship? With pun-filled text and emotive illustrations, Clarinet and Trumpet honors the important role music plays in creating community. Shake the book, and you can join the band, too!
