Inspired by the sound of musicians at a local street festival, young Zi becomes determined to learn an instrument. With support from his family and music teachers, Zi tries out a guitar, violin, and much more. But each one ends in disaster—a SNAP or a CRACK! Just as Zi is ready to give up, a moment of rhythmic tapping gives him an idea and the discovery of an unexpected talent. Not Even a Snap! Is a wonderfully energetic and funny story about resilience and self-discovery, with illustrations that capture the beat of this wonderful tale!
