The delightful classic by E. B. White, author of Charlotte s Web and Stuart Little, about overcoming obstacles and the joy of music. This edition features Fred Marcellino s gorgeous illustrations in full color!

Like the rest of his family, Louis is a trumpeter swan. But unlike his four brothers and sisters, Louis can t trumpet joyfully. In fact, he can t even make a sound. And since he can t trumpet his love, the beautiful swan Serena pays absolutely no attention to him.

Louis tries everything he can think of to win Serena s affection—he even goes to school to learn to read and write. But nothing seems to work. Then his father steals him a real brass trumpet. Is a musical instrument the key to winning Louis his love?
