Who doesn’t like Reynolds’ work? Author of The Dot, Ish, and
so many more, his work is well loved. Another book connecting to our identity
and our birthright gifts, Playing from the Heart is the story of a boy who
naturally loves to play the piano.
He is so talented that his father decides to
hire a teacher so Raj can learn how to formally play. Over time, the teaching
becomes restrictive, and finally Raj stops playing. Only when he is truly asked
does he return to the piano.
This sweet, endearing, important picture book offers us a rich space to either open the conversation of being who we are or continue it. Another keeper from the master himself.
