Description
Two boys from North End Halifax explore their neighbourhood and the city beyond, finding music everywhere. At the skate park, by the Public Gardens, down Spring Garden Road, and on the boardwalk, drums and saxophones and dancers and basketballs create the jumbled, joyful, pulsing rhythm of Halifax. Shauntay Grant''s playful spoken word-style poem and Susan Tooke''s vivid illustrations create a wildly energetic and appealing journey through the big, bright city.
