A celebration of music and beat. This rhythmic verse introduces the steel band and the types of pans that make a band. Colourful illustrations of children playing steel pans have real child appeal. The brief and beautifully illustrated historical section that follows tells how steel pans were originally made. Ping Pong is an exciting way to introduce the steel pan to children. "As a teacher and writer, I have read many accounts of the history of the steel pan, but none quite as enjoyable as "Rosa's Notes on Pan". In simple terms, Stoute provides an invaluable overview on the pan yesteryear and today. We even learn how steel pans were made in the old days! These "fact sheets" are also enhanced by colourful, beautifully rendered drawings." - Nailah Folami Imoja, Educator/Writer.
