SELECTED TITLE

Ane Barmen
Melody!

A vibrant and delightful story about music, siblings, and doing whatever it takes to feel included.

Tone loves playing with her older brother, Daniel. They do all kinds of fun things like building forts and having dance parties. But when stupid Ingeborg Plingeborg comes over, they exclude Tone from their games. They only care about the marching band, which Tone is too young to be a part of. No fair!

Illustrated by Skinkeape.
