about this book: Bundy the dog sets out to help little Wombat find a musical instrument to play. An instrument that is just the right shape and size for a little wombat. Along the way they meet a variety of different musicians and interesting instruments. But will Bundy find the right instrument for a little Wombat to play?

This illustrated storybook is an early introduction to musical instruments for pre-school children.

I wrote this story as I really believe that very young children should understand the sounds and characteristics of some classical musical instruments. And yes, as a teacher I have found that young children think its 'cool' to listen to fun stories about animals learning about music.

Honestly, in my opinion music is a requirement for life, and so we need lots of stories about music to read to children.

Wombat's Musical Adventure is a real favourite with youngsters and their parents.
