Taken from Chapter 4: Drum D is for something you hit with your hands or sticks. It helps keep the beat of music. Native People say it sounds like the heartbeat of Mother Earth. In the past, people sent long-distance messages by playing it loud. Did you guess that D is for drum?

Eclectic Mix is Informing and Entertaining,
This review is from: Musical Instruments from A to Z (Alphabasics) (Paperback)
Musical Instruments From A to Z is a wonderfully eclectic alphabet book. The choice of instruments runs the gamut from the ordinary; guitar, clarinet, drum, to the unique and unusual; ch'ing, alpenhorn, and zeze. The choice of instruments for each letter is sometimes just what you would think; D is for drum, S is for stringed instruments, and sometimes it just keeps you guessing; A is for harp, or "Angel music", E and F are for guitar, "electric" of course that you play with your "fingers". In keeping with this varied format the illustrations are a wonderful combination of photographs of adults and children, illustrations, and paintings, sure to keep any child amused and entertained.
