I didn't like this book.

Babar: To Duet or Not to Duet is a cute picture book about saying what you mean and following through. It is out of print now, but you may be able to find it at your local library or through your local library's interlibrary loan service. I requested this through my library to share with my nieces and nephews, who also thoroughly enjoyed it. The story's pacing is excellent, and the drawings are nice and colorful. A short and sweet review of a short and sweet book.
