Celebrate Unique Talent!
It's that time of year again! Schools are having winter concerts. People ask me how I came up with this idea. Actually, it came to me pretty quickly. After I wrote Saves the Day, I knew that Little Honker was unique and would find his musical talent. We had two Siamese cats who used to assist Kari and Kris when they practiced the piano. From time to time, a paw note would be added to the music. I decided Honker would do that. The girls were so excited, they just had to ask their panrents and band teacher. So often, differences are just the thing you need. Honker did honk in all the right places, he earned his chance at the bells and did very well until some fell off. He's a cat. His job was to get them. The dash around the auditorium also entertained. A fun Winter Concert for sure.
Book Excerpt
Little Honker's Winter Concert
At the concert, Warren sat on top of his spaceship to the side of the stage while the band was playing familiar holiday songs. He looked around and noticed some streamers by the curtains used to capture the holiday spirit. Red, green, white. Bells were attached to some of the streamers.
The kitty inside of Warren took over and he started to bat the streamers. The bells made noise as the band played. Giggles from the audience forced a frown from Mr. Woody. A frown for Warren and a frown for Kari and Kris.
When it was time for Kari and Kris to perform, Warren got off his spaceship and joined Kari on the piano bench. Kari stood up and faced the audience. “Tonight we have a special addition to the program. Our cat, Warren, loves music and practicing with us.
So, he will assist Kris and me as we play our holiday songs.” She sat on the piano bench and they both played “Frosty the Snowman” and their special duet. The audience clapped and Warren honked.
