Mac the millipede has lots and lots of arms and legs—which are useful for many things, but especially for making music. He dreams of playing in the Soggy Bog Talent Show with a band, but wherever he auditions, everyone says NO. No one wants him . . . until Mac comes up with an ingenious, satisfying one-millipede solution to his problem! Brendan Kearney’s funny, charming picture book will inspire all kids who like to march to the beat of their own drum.

This is such a fun story! Kids will instantly relate to Mac. I love that the author brought the various musical groups back and encouraged Mac to use the particular talent he had shared when he tried to join them. Keep reading to finish the review.

4.5 stars. So cute! I loved the illustrations. I loved that Mac is always affirmed for the quality of his music. His fitting in issues tend more toward the physical - too small, too big, too tasty. Fun addition to home or school library, music classrooms, etc.
