Students will love this imaginative musical picture of the eternally famous, smiling Cheshire Cat. A quick, scampering introductory section leads to a lazy, mock-lullaby theme, with a tempo marking of “Drowsily.” At the coda, the cat disappears in a flurry of quick phrases and a final “Poof!” The composer has added an original limerick to set the scene perfectly!
