'Melody Bear and the Musical Instruments' is Book Two in the Melody Movement early learning preschool dance series.

The accompany CD has the story read aloud with amusing inserts of Melody Bear's attempts to play the instruments, followed by Eugene Kulikov's imaginative compositions for children to dance to as mermaids, birds, robots and carnival dancers.
