About This Book
In his apartment building in the city, Sam hears voices, barking dogs, snoring, and all kinds of other noises. One rainy day he also hears the sad sounds of a harmonica, and wonders who's playing. Sam's search leads him to Apt. 3, where he finds not only the source of the music but a new friend.About the Authors or Illustrators
An American author and illustrator of children's books, Ezra Jack Keats illustrated jackets for adult and juvenile books and provided drawings for almost a dozen children's books by other authors before he wrote The Snowy Day (1962), one of the first picture books in which the central character is a minority child. It won the Caldecott Medal.
