Thelonious Mouse

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Anne Wilsdorf. "Thelonious was some cool cat--for a mouse." While his parents tiptoe around feline Fat Cat, Thelonious can't stop dancing and scat-singing. Patient readers (and the text does go on) will be rewarded with the revelation that cat and mouse make beautiful music together. This tribute to jazz great Thelonious Monk features bebop-ish lines of text and comparatively subdued art.
