Meet a young girl who hears the music of her culture in a very special way. Young Metisse has an incredible amount of pluck and a very big idea for her Grandmother's birthday. Everyone in her community knows the rules: the girls are supposed to dance, and the boys are the ones who play the fiddle. But Metisse feels the rhythm of her traditions differently, and she is determined to play the fiddle herself to honor her Grandmother. You will cheer for Metisse as she beautifully challenges expectations and shows everyone that tradition can be celebrated in more than one way. With tender, warm illustrations and a witty, charming story, this book shows how wonderful it can be to follow your heart and share your unique talents with the people you love.
