A touching reminder of how music can bring people together.
Xiaomi will never forget the magical sounds she heard one hot summer evening when the power went out in her familys apartment building.
It happened while her parents were preparing dinner. Her father lit candles and suggested they take their musical instruments to the courtyard to perform for their neighbours. Xiaomi danced as her father played the erhu and her mother the accordion. The songs made their way into each home, and soon, everyone joined the concert, laughing and singing under the moonlight.
"Very highly recommended for family, elementary school, and community library collections for children ages 7-9."--MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW
