My daddy isn’t getting enough sleep. How tired he looks! His hands are shaking. A surgeon whose hands are shaking can’t very well fix people’s hearts. Every night, I hear the living room floorboards creaking. It’s daddy, pacing back and forth…

A powerful story about live, love, and music!

The Book

The child narrator is worried about his father. Surgeon by day, he sleeps poorly at night, haunted by his work and responsibilities. With help from music and friends, he tries to find a solution.

Art is vital to life!
