LOGLINE
Following mysterious noises through an ordinary afternoon, a curious child discovers nature’s hidden music and learns that wonder begins by stopping to listen.
SYNOPSIS
Drawn outside by the cheerful sound of the playground, a young boy begins noticing the quieter sounds hidden all around him: a squirrel climbing a tree, a magpie building its nest, a cat brushing against the ground, ducks eating moss, seeds drifting through the air, and tiny insects moving nearby. Through playful onomatopoeia and warm illustrations, the book turns an ordinary walk into an adventure in listening, curiosity, and sensory discovery.
