Or a Sports Car Smash and Crash (with debris and rolling hubcap). Sound like Gollum while reading Lord of the Ringsto a favorite nephew. Have meaningful dialogue with your dog. Hold the table spellbound by acting out "Titanic: The Movie" in ten seconds.Since he wrote the first MouthSoundsin 1980, Fred Newman whistled, popped, boinged, and honked his way to social success, creating noises and sounds for dozens of movies.

The Cell Phone Ring. The Stomach Growl. Birds, Banjos, and Rock Guitars.

Synopsis:MOUTHSOUNDS is a step-by-step guide to making over 150 noises with your mouth: be a human beat box, perform the movie "Titanic in 10 seconds, "play" Purple Haze in duck quacks, or simply whistle for a taxi. The book also includes five sound stories to read and tell, as well as instructions for creating your own vocal characters: babies, old folks, animals, and cartoons.
