Squeak, Rumble, Whomp! Whomp! Whomp!

Squeak, Rumble, Whomp! Whomp! Whomp! : A Sonic Adventure
by Wynton Marsalis
illustrated by Paul Rogers

Sounds are all around us!  Written by a renowned jazz musician, this story uses onomatopoeic words to  describe the numerous sounds a child encounters throughout his day, including the loud squeak of a door, the scratching of toast being buttered, and many musical instruments.

Full of large, engaging illustrations, this story will be a fun book to use when discussing how we describe the many sounds around us.
