Abstract
"E.B. White’s children’s classic, Trumpet of the Swan, offers a touching fantasy of a young trumpeter swan, Louis, who unlike his siblings is born without the ability to trumpet. Lacking this natural ability, Louis will never be able to attract a mate and live a complete life [1]. Recognizing this reality, his parents intervened. His father flew into a nearby town and stole a trumpet, which Louis learned to play, and thereby earned not only a living but also his mate’s heart. Stealing the trumpet compromised the integrity of Louis’ father and Louis made restitution by paying the debt for the instrument. The substitution of an instrument for the natural call of the trumpeter swan is of course what charms the reader – while one is left to ponder how many substitutes for natural abilities might lie in the hidden storehouse of genetic knowledge."
