Imagine living on a tiny island more than a thousand miles from
any other inhabited place! That's where a girl named Mahani
lived—on Rapa Nui, also known as Easter Island. Mahani grew up
taking music lessons on the island's only piano. She had the
talent to become a great pianist, but pursuing that dream meant
leaving the home she loved.
As Mahani toured the world as an acclaimed concert pianist,
Rapa Nui stayed close to her heart. She knew the island
struggled with problems like ocean trash and wondered how she
could help. So she returned to Rapa Nui with a new dream—to
build a music school! The unique building is constructed with
recycled trash and has solar panels and a food garden. Now
Mahani is helping build a more sustainable future for her
island home—where the music continues.Book, 40 pages.
