The Trumpet of the Swan is an amazing book about Louis, a trumpeter swan who doesn't have a voice. His father and a boy named Sam Beaver help him, but when he falls in love with a beautiful swan named Serena and she refuses him, his father steals a trumpet so he can steal her heart. In the end, Louis finds his voice. The character in this book that I would most want to be friends with is Louis, because he never gives up. My least favorite character is the storekeeper, because he is violent.
