Travel through the trees and across the seas with Maestro Mouse and his musical friends! Young readers will meet a big blue whale and speedy cheetahs, tiny beetles and graceful swans. Each has a special secret to share.
Along the way, you might spot the surprises Maestro Mouse has left for you- a hiding buzzy bee, jumbled letters that spell out clues, and even a coded message to solve!
Children and adults can enjoy this picture book as a traditional read-along, or can choose to listen to original musical compositions as they read–one for each animal–with a free interactive smartphone app, which uses augmented reality to play the appropriate song for each page when a phone’s camera is held over it.

The music is wonderful, poetry is amazing, illustrations are creative and humorous. My granddaughter and I absolutely loved it, and the online feature was a pleasant surprise. I’ve read Dan Brown’s many adult novels, but loved this one the best!!!

If you have young kids and want them to fall in love with reading and music, you have to buy this book. I bought it a few weeks ago for a friend who has 2 kids, ages 4 and 6. The 4 year old is just getting into reading but her brother has never shown much interest — he just wants to play on a cell phone/ipad and thinks books are boring. So I figured it would mostly be a present for the 4 year old.
Anyway, my friend called me yesterday, practically in tears, to thank me because even her son has been reading the book every day. She said he LOVES that he can use her phone’s AR feature to make different songs play depending on what page they flip to. He has the whole thing memorized and is asking if there are other books like it. She’s just amazed because she had been worried that he would never be much of a reader. And she’s glad that she doesn’t have to listen to annoying clown music (as she called it) that’s usually geared to kids but beautiful symphony music that she also enjoys.
My kids (who love to read) are teens and too old for it, but this will be my go-to gift for friends and family with young kids.
