I know what an ear trumpet is since I’ve seen them but sharing it with people who don’t is marvelous! The poetry was grand and wonderfully informative at the same time!

Kids find out what an ear trumpet is and this wonderful older woman finds out what a good listener she is. Whimsical tale with wonderful illustrations.
