The delightful classic by E. B. White, author
of Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little, about
overcoming obstacles and the joy of music.
Like the rest of his family, Louis is a
trumpeter swan. But unlike his four brothers and sisters, Louis can't trumpet
joyfully. In fact, he can't even make a sound. And since he can't trumpet his
love, the beautiful swan Serena pays absolutely no attention to him.
Louis tries everything he can think of to win
Serena's affection—he even goes to school to learn to read and write. But
nothing seems to work. Then his father steals him a real brass trumpet. Is a
musical instrument the key to winning Louis his love?
"We, and our children, are lucky to have
this book." —John Updike

E. B. White, the author of such beloved classics as Charlotte's Web, Stuart Little, and The Trumpet of the Swan, was born in Mount Vernon, New York. He graduated from Cornell University in 1921 and, five or six years later, joined the staff of the New Yorker magazine, then in its infancy. He died on October 1, 1985, at his home in Maine.
Mr. White's essays have appeared in Harper's magazine, and some of his other books are: One Man's Meat, The Second Tree from the Corner, Letters of E. B. White, Essays of E. B. White, and Poems and Sketches of E. B. White. He won countless awards, including the 1971 National Medal for Literature and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award, which commended him for making a "substantial and lasting contribution to literature for children."
During his lifetime, many young readers asked Mr. White if his stories were true. In a letter written to be sent to his fans, he answered, "No, they are imaginary tales . . . But real life is only one kind of life-there is also the life of the imagination."
