Description A Musical Journey Under the Sea, for the Eyes and Ears Step into a joyful, exciting, and beautiful world of music! Children sway to rhythms and hum along to songs many times a day. Even when they're upset, a cheerful tune can melt away their frustration, and a calm melody can gently lull them to sleep. Baby fish Hayangi and friends are no different. "Hayangi and Friends Sing" captures the sea friends singing joyfully in their own unique styles, voices, and ways. Each character's distinct song and music bring readers delight and heartfelt beauty. In the final chapter, Handel's majestic "Water Music" (Movement II), performed on a grand organ, invites our children into a truly beautiful musical world. What Instrument Does It Sound Like? Waking up early and in good spirits, baby fish Hayangi sings a cheerful song — one that sounds just like piano keys. Hayangi's friends each sing songs that resemble different instruments too: the husky-voiced turtle sounds like a marimba and drums, the dolphin's high, clear whistle sounds like a flute, the octopus's bubbly song sounds like handbells, the stuffy-nosed seahorse with a cold sounds like a harmonica, and the sea urchin, bouncing along as it sings, sounds like wooden rhythm sticks being tapped. The way each sea friend's appearance matches its instrument sound helps children naturally become familiar with the unique qualities of different instruments. A Book That Celebrates Beauty Just as It Is Just like the many different instruments in an orchestra, each of us has our own unique look and personality — and it's our differences that make us beautiful. Hayangi sees friends for who they truly are and celebrates their strengths: finding the turtle's drumming fun, the octopus's bubbling sound beautiful, worrying about the seahorse's cold, and giggling at the tickly vibration of the dolphin's whistle. Meet the sea friends who make the world more beautiful through their own unique personalities — now with sound to bring their story to life!
