For fans of Press Here, this new interactive picture book line invites readers to touch and move and "play" with the book.
To start our show we need a band--maybe you can lend a hand!
There are lots of ways little hands can make music. Each page of this interactive book invites readers to strum the guitar, slide the trombone, crash the cymbals, and more--no instruments required! With a delightful rhyming text and engaging illustrations, this book is full of instruments waiting to share their sounds. The only thing this band needs is YOU! Just use your imagination, turn the pages, and Play This Book!
Pair with Pet This Book, another title in this young picture book line that comes printed on heavy-duty card stock pages to stand up to all kinds of play!

"Music-loving kids will go nuts for this interactive book. . . . Wiseman’s illustrations shine with bold strokes and bright colors and an inclusive cast of kid musicians. The book ends, of course, with thunderous applause." - School Library Journal
"Wiseman's art cleverly makes each instrument something readers can ‘play’ . . . Whether it's storytime for a large group or one-on-one laptime, just try and stop kids from following this book's titular encouragement." - Kirkus Reviews
"Eye-catching for young readers. . . . A fun, interactive read-aloud perfect for a ­pet-themed storytime." - School Library Journal on PET THIS BOOK
"The inclusion of lively sound effects for each animal will indeed encourage interactive participation . . . and the bold illustrations make this a natural for read-alouds." - Booklist on PET THIS BOOK
