BUYING ADVISORY: NOT RECOMMENDED
A little girl is going to the all night parranda with her family. As she listens to the different instruments played by the participants, she tries to find an instrument and rhythm of her own.
The illustrations are full of life and joy. I was disappointed, however, that the parranda is only explained in the back matter - I was hoping for a new book about a community celebration. Also, the text seems to want to rhyme - some of the sentence constructions are a little convoluted in that way. UT - while a few might be considered slant rhymes, most of them aren’t even close to rhyming.
