AN INTERACTIVE, SWING-ALONG PICTURE BOOK-WITH 12 SOUND CHIPS!

Are you ready to swing? Discover the wonders of jazz: How to get in the groove, what it means to play a solo, and the joy of singing along in a call-and-response.

In this interactive swing-along picture book with 12 sound chips, you'll hear the instruments of jazz-the rhythm section with its banjo, drums, and tuba, and the leads, like the clarinet, trumpet, and trombone. And you'll hear singers scat, improvising melodies with nonsense syllables like be-bop and doo-we-ah!

Along the way, you'll learn how this unique African American art form started in New Orleans, and how jazz changed over time as innovative musicians like King Oliver, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and Billie Holiday added their own ideas to it.

Press the buttons to hear the band, the rhythms, and the singer calling out: "OH WHEN THE SAINTS-oh when the saints..."
WARNING - KEEP BUTTON BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
Swallowing may lead to serious or fatal injury in as little as 2 hours due to chemical burns and potential perforation of the esophagus.
