Reach for this book when your child feels like they are marching to the beat of a different drummer or hasn't yet found 'their people.' Whether they are constantly humming, tapping, or creating, this story is a beautiful validation for the child who feels a little lonely in their unique passions. It follows Violet from her toddler years to her school days as she searches for others who share her soul-deep love for making music. While the world around her remains quiet or uninterested, Violet never stops playing her guitar. It is a joyful, rhythmic celebration of staying true to oneself until the world finally catches up. This gentle narrative helps children ages 3 to 7 understand that being 'different' is actually just a way of waiting to find your band.
