Ben watches all the musicians practice playing their music, but the musician he is most interested in is the trumpeter! This story is about a young boy named Ben who sits outside on the fire escape and listen to the music from the Zig Zag Jazz Club and he plays his imaginary trumpet. “Ben’s Trumpet” may have gorgeous illustrations, but the story might not be enough to attract the attention of younger children. “Ben’s Trumpet” is a Caldecott Honor Book by Rachel Isadora and it details about a young boy’s interest in playing the trumpet after he sees a popular musician playing his trumpet. I was reading this book for the Goodreads Picture Book Club for the theme of music. I’d already read two of the books, have three at home to read (including this one), and for the first time cannot get one of the books, in this case the book designated as an alternate book, which is too bad because it looks fabulous. This book is one of the six books (five books and an alternate) chosen by the Pictures Books Club over at the Children's Books group for its March theme of music. What a lovely story! Much is told in relatively few words. But, because of that, how this story evolves, I found even more emotionally rich when I finally did understand. I wasn’t sufficiently observant about what the pictures were telling me. However, and I’m embarrassed to admit this, I didn’t read the cues about what was going on re Ben’s trumpet. I love when the illustrations bleed out of their area.
A lot of 20s slang and mood is at the forefront, which I enjoyed, but as I read I wasn’t sure young children would. It’s basically a historical fiction very short picture book story.
