The Trumpet of the Swanby E B White
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Swan Song Like the rest of his family, Louis is a trumpeter swan. But unlike his four brothers and sisters, Louis can't trumpet joyfully. In fact, he can't even make a sound. And since he can't trumpet his love, the beautiful swan Serena pays absolutely no attention to him. Louis tries everything he can think of to win Serena's affection--he even goes to school to learn to read and write. But nothing seems to work. Then his father steals him a real brass trumpet. Is a musical instrument the key to winning Louis his love? Synopsis:A voiceless Trumpeter swan named Louis finds himself far from his wilderness home when he determines to communicate by learning to play a trumpet.
