Content : In the Squirrel family, everyone is a musician!
Everyone? Well, not quite. Ticajou, the youngest, just can't decide.
He enjoys listening to his big brother play the flute, or when Grandma Cinnamon makes her cello resonate...
But he’s still searching for an instrument that he truly likes!
Open your ears wide, Ticajou! And you’ll find it!
Soon enough, Ticajou discovers his instrument – it will be… his voice!
Here is a book and CD that, through a playful story, introduces children to 9 musical instruments (trumpet, drum, piano, oboe, violin, flute, guitar, cello, and the voice) and 9 must-know classical pieces composed by Mozart, Beethoven, Vivaldi, Fauré, Bizet, Bach, and more.
Each instrument has its own piece, and then the grand finale brings them all together.
A lovely bonus at the end of the CD: Vocaline the fairy, who helps Ticajou find his voice, invites children to sing along too.
Ticajou’s world is enchanting: his treehouse is full of cheerful colours and adorable details (Ticajou sleeps in a walnut shell), the squirrels have the sweetest faces, and great care has been taken with the 8 instruments and how they’re played.
The musicians and actors who lend their voices to the characters delight us with their talent and sense of performance.
A story to listen to and enjoy again and again.
