Summary

Daddy Longlegs will have kids singing along with his bluesy song as they read this hip picture book! He's one cool cat who scats, an eight-legged drummer keeping the beat. He moves and grooves and gets funky across the floor. And one thing's for sure: no one's better at getting mellow on a saxophone, and bringing rhythm and soul into every child's home. Mike Ornstein's catchy rhyming text is irresistibly musical, and Lisa Kopelke's witty art features plenty of fun details and an urban, bohemian flair; her sunglasses-wearing title character seems to come straight out of the Beat generation. A glossary of blues terms, a list of instruments played by the characters, and a page of facts about daddy longlegs and blues music provides extra entertaining info.
