Summary
In Cuba in the 1930s, music filled the air. Millo had a dream playing drums of all kinds, but the country and her father only permitted boys to play drums. Millo finds a way to drum and practices in secret.… Eventually her father relents and hires a music teacher for her. Millo's persistance means that she and her sisters become the first all-girl dance band in Cuba and play with and for famous people. (Story inspired by the childhood of Millo Castro Zaldarriaga.) For grades K-3
