Once Upon a Rhythm Book

It hums and it thrums
through day and night
the magical, mystical
rhythm of life!

Follow the story of music back to the very beginning.
Did it start with a stomp or a clap?
This playful poem is an ode to the colourful world of music and rhythm.

Written by James Carter and illustrated by Valerio Vidali.
