Martin had always liked music -- liked to listen to it, liked to make up tunes in his head. But all he had to do was say the word "piano" to his father and all hell would break loose.His father thought music was for sissies, and was always mad at Martin for not being good at baseball. But with a lot of help from his friends Wylene and Sybil, and his grandmother, Hazeline, Martin learns that, although he can't change his father, he can learn to stick up for himself.
