A picture book about the childhood of the best tabla player in the
world, Grammy Award-winning Zakir Hussain Just a day and a half
old, the very first words Zakir hears from his famous father,
Allarakha, are bols -- rhythms played out on tablas! These rhythms
sing and dance in his head, on Amma's cheeks, on pots and pans...
The author follows these beats, stringing together little vignettes
from his life. From a childhood around music to the highs of a
performer who took the tabla to the world, this joyous story
introduces children to a musical genius, whose busy fingers and
flying curls make him the inimitable Zakir Hussain. The
illustrations add their own magic with fine artistry and a subtle
but striking use of colors.
