The Best Sound In The World

The Best Sound In The World

"Simply charming" - The Sun Roy is a lion and a sound catcher. He catches the sounds of the city and makes them into music, trying to avoid the annoying attentions of his neighbor, Jemmy. Feeling like his music isn?t good enough, Roy goes on a journey to find the best sound in the world for inspiration. He hears the pitter-patter of the rain in the forest, the wind whistling through the desert, and the hustle and bustle of the souk at sunrise, but none of it helps-he can?t decide which is the best sound. Just as he?s about to give up, he hears a familiar voice . . . can Jemmy teach him that perhaps there are lots of beautiful sounds, not just one, and that for Jemmy, Roy?s music is the best of all? This gorgeous debut picture book is a heart-warming tribute to the power of friendship. About the Author Cindy Wume is a freelance illustrator from Tainan, Taiwan.
