Description

Lentil just wanted to sing so badly - but whenever he tried, the most horrible croak-like sound came out. He had an idea one day to get a harmonica and teach himself how to play. Soon he could play well, and he played everywhere and all down the streets - past the finest house which belonged to the great Colonel Carter; by the library, which was a gift of the great Colonel Carter; through the Carter Memorial Park; and on and on. As you know by now, Colonel Carter is a very important, generous, respected town figure. When he comes back to town after two years, everybody is excited except the grouchy Sneep. When Sneep tries to sabotage the welcome-home festivities, can Lentil save the day?

Publisher's Description of Lentil
Young Lentil wants to learn to sing, but no matter how hard he tries he can’t sing on key.  He can’t even pucker his lips to whistle!  So Lentil learns to play the harmonica instead and beautifully carries his tune through the winding streets of Alto, Ohio.  Lentil masters his craft just as the beloved Colonel Carter returns to town and the Alto residents decide to plan a special celebration.  But Old Sneep, the grouchiest man in town, doesn’t want anyone celebrating Colonel Carter’s homecoming.  When Old Sneep stops the welcoming parade in its tracks, Lentil’s music turns out to be just what Alto needs.
