Tommy The Cricket

About the Book

Join Tommy on a toe-tapping journey to find his own sound!

Tommy the Cricket is a quick-witted little bug with one big problem—he can’t make music like the other crickets! While his classmates fill the air with cheerful tunes, Tommy’s chirps sound more like squeaks. Embarrassed and determined to hide his secret, Tommy tries everything to avoid music class. But when his wild excuses finally run out, he decides to hop away from home in search of his true rhythm.

Along the way, Tommy meets a drumming turtle, a singing bluejay, and a band of croaking toads—all playing music in their own unique ways. Through each encounter, Tommy learns that making music isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being yourself.

With whimsical illustrations and a heartwarming message, Tommy the Cricket is a charming story about perseverance, self-discovery, and finding joy in your own song. Perfect for young readers and families to share, this delightful adventure reminds every child that their sound matters.

Whether for bedtime reading or classroom inspiration, Tommy the Cricket will have little ones hopping for more!
