Why It Matters

I Want A Trumpet! joins the ever-popular Little Princess as she decides to become a musician. Inspired by a new music box, she fashions her own funnel trumpet and practises everywhere, whether the rest of the castle appreciates it or not.

With Tony Ross's much-loved humour and expressive artwork, it is a gentle, giggly story about following an enthusiasm and learning that new skills take a little practice.

## About this book

Every child has wanted to master something right this second, and the Little Princess is no different. When a music box captures the castle's attention, she decides she will be a musician too, builds herself a funnel trumpet, and launches into practice with total commitment.

Tony Ross tells it with his signature warmth and comic timing, and the castle's less-than-delighted reactions give the story plenty of laughs. Underneath the fun sits a gentle truth: new skills sound a bit rough at first, and that is perfectly fine.

Part of the beloved Little Princess series, it is a relatable, funny read for any determined young learner. A story that celebrates enthusiasm while smiling at how noisy it can be.
