(3) K-3 Illustrated by Melissa Sweet. The Marching Bat Band is led by a drum majorette followed by four piccolo players marching two by two, nine flute players three by three, all the way up to one hundred tuba players in ten rows of ten. Marching mice carry flags that provide the mathematical equation for each set of musicians. The humorous rhyming text is illustrated with detailed watercolors that show 385 band members in all their glory.
