"The Ear Book" by Al Perkins, illustrated by William O'Brian


This book was another hand-me-down from the St. Albans Police Department, and what I love most about it is the rhythm. If read correctly, this book produces such a moving beat that you can't help but sway a bit. It plays with your ears, which I appreciate, in light of what it is about.
Bowden will move to this book, and laugh at the noises, and lean in to hear the soft sounds.
(Random House, 1968)
