Gr 1-2–A beautiful and striking story about Carol Powder and the legacy of caring for the drum. Taught by her great-grandfather on the meaning of the drum and how to play, Powder developed a deep connection to the beat, her family, and beyond. The strong connection carries her, as she ages, to share the powerful origins of the drum to subsequent generations. The wondrous illustrations encapsulate the life and joy that is expressed in drumming, both to the heart and eye. The imagery is blended and pleasing, strengthening the story’s emotions.
VERDICT A wonderful volume that gives insight into the powerful source of joy and intention; Powder’s dedication to her teachings extends into the next generations with every turn of the page.
