The Rock Family Band cover

The Rock family make a CRASH wherever they go. It's all a bit much for Sam.

Sam's family, the Rocks, are too loud for him. But when stage fright hits, maybe his rocking, grooving family is just what he needs.Meet the Rocks. Dad is a rock guitarist, Pops is the singer, Liv is the drummer, and Bo is keyboardist and writes the lyrics. Oh, and Nan and the dog are in the band too. It's a household of big shoes, big hair, and GLAM ROCK. Except for the youngest child, Sam. Sam is a flautist who likes peace, quiet and classical music. He doesn't feel like he fits in and he's dreading his end-of-year school recital. Can he trust his family to sit and listen? But when stage fright hits, maybe Sam's rocking, grooving, clanging family might be just what he needs. A new picture book from Robert Tregoning, winner of the Indie Book Awards 2024, Picture Book Category for The Dress in the Window.
