Jungle Song

Little Tapir is sleeping next to his mother when he is woken by Spider and led deep inside the jungle following the beat of Spider’s song. Monkeys, firebirds, snakes, and insects all add their own rhythms to the music, but when the beat stops and Tapir is all alone, he realises how dangerous the jungle can be. Making things worse is that he can’t find Mother Tapir anywhere! Miriam Moss’s lively rhyming text and Adrienne Kennaway’s endearing creatures and colorful watercolor tableaux make this an enchanting trip to the jungle for young readers.
