A joyous celebration of drums, heartbeats, and the bond between mother and child, by acclaimed African American musician Randy Preston

Bass drum, steel pan, snare . . . is there any kind of drum this little boy’s mom can’t play? For as long as he can remember, drums have been a big part of their life together. And whether in the living room, the park, or the concert hall, he loves grooving with her. There’s something so soothing and special in the beat of each and every drum, which makes him wonder, what was the very first drum he heard?

With rhythmic language mimicking the sounds of drumbeats and joyful illustrations illuminating the feeling of connection they create, this is a unique celebration of music—and motherhood—that families will treasure.

批評家のレビュー

“Can you remember the first drum you ever heard? Was it a bass drum—'bump bump bump’? Or a snare: ‘clunk a clunk clunk’? . . . Preston suggests that it was something more familiar: the steady, comforting ‘lub dub / lub dub’ of your mother’s heartbeat. A Black parent and child move through this rhyming story in a joyful, fast-paced drumming adventure. One moment, they’re pounding a bass drum in the living room; the next, the mother is onstage behind a full drum set while her child cheers from the audience. Their musical adventure continues as they beat drums while dancers whirl; later, the pair tap steel pans at a lively street festival. The thread of connection remains strong through the shifting settings, capturing both the excitement of performance and the warmth of making music together. Midway through, the narrative takes a sudden quieter turn, focusing on the beat of the mother’s heart as a baby grows and later carries that rhythm through life. . . . Its sweet message lands: Love, music, and identity are all tied to an inner beat. Bold digital illustrations evoke colored pencil and watercolor, with vibrant colors and energetic compositions that pulse with movement. Backmatter adds interest with notes on the drums featured in the story. A heartfelt celebration of rhythm and motherhood.” —Kirkus Reviews

“For a little boy and his mother, playing the drums brings a jubilant rhythm to their lives, and given all the drums his mother can play, the little boy wonders what sort of drum he heard first. . . . Pulsing with exuberant and playful energy, Preston’s upbeat rhyme and repetition in this picture book focus on the nurturing power of mothers and the deep affection for musical storytelling. Viewers will be drawn to the diverse range of drums featuring steel pans, whirling drums, and djembes (hand drums), each of which are described by the joyful sound they make. Anthony’s digital brushes emulate smooth watercolor and colored-pencil textures with a muted autumn palette to illustrate the warm, harmonious connection drums bring to the little boy’s community. Elsewhere, sweeping, curving perspectives convey the dynamic drum motions and expansive locations where he and his mother play together. A heart monitor with wavy lines forms heart shapes that lovingly frame a timeline of photos of the mother-son duo, reiterating how strong and grounded such a bond can be. This is a sweet tale of parental love that will encourage young readers to listen to the drumbeats inside them and share their music to the world.” —The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
