Roohi's most treasured time of the day is when she gets to
listen to her grandfather play the rabab, the traditional
stringed instrument of the Pashtun people. All she wants, more
than anything in the world, is to be able to play songs full of
rhythm like him. But even with lessons everyday, she sounds
nothing like Neeka Baba's clap-de-clap-clap rhythm and
beautiful melodies.
With Eid celebrations coming up, Roohi is supposed to play the
rabab at a school concert, but Neeka Baba has fallen ill, and
she must perform without his help. He tells her, "Play with the
courage of those who came before you." Can Roohi draw on her
ancestors' strength and share the melody in her heart at the
Eid concert?
Book, 32 pages.
