In this rollicking, rhyming picture book, a pair of siblings who are supposed to be in bed discover a jazz band
playing in their basement
The sounds downstairs are funky
and we start to wiggle toes.
We flip-flop and we giggle
with sheets up to the nose.
The rhythm’s steady, the trumpet’s sweet.
Before too long, we’re on our feet!
After hearing Daddy’s band practicing in the basement, a brother and sister can’t resist sneaking out of bed to
watch them play. Careful, careful, can’t be caught. Tiptoe past the squeaky spot! They long to join in the fun,
but can’t be seen out of bed—until the discovery of a surprise band member turns the jam session into a family
affair. With an energetic, lyrical text from award-winning author Kelly J. Baptist and exuberant illustrations from
Jenin Mohammed, The Band in Our Basement will have readers feeling the beat—right before settling back
down for bedtime.
