(2) 4-6 Twelve-year-old Sam Morris dreams of being a drummer, but she faces some daunting obstacles. She perseveres by improvising and eventually convinces prickly drum teacher Pete Taylor to take her on. He becomes her mentor, and Sam turns out to be something of a prodigy. An appealing, goodhearted story for young people yearning to march to the beat of their own drums.
