The Note Who Faced the Music

*Signed Bookplate*

In this musical match for The Day the Crayons Quit, Half Note believes shes so unimportant that she leaves the musical staff, but when the composer and other notes descend into hilarious cacophony without her, she learns everyone has a special part to play.

Half Note doesnt feel whole. With two beats, she isnt as big and beautiful as Whole Note, or as quick and upbeat as Quarter Note. She worries shell never measure up! So when the other members of the musical staff are at rest, she picks up like a fast tempo and leaves.

But Composer and the staff cant play anything noteworthy without Half Note. Their only hope is to convince Half Note to change her tune and come back.

This hilarious, offbeat tale of sheet music in treble will strike a chord with anyone whos felt out of sync, ringing with reassurance that everyone has a part to play when working as a team. At the coda, readers can develop their ear with a glossary of musical terms included.
