Everyone in the Yang Family is talented musician except for nine-year old Yingtao, the youngest Yang. Even after years of violin lessons from his father, Yingtao cannot make beautiful music. Now that his family has moved from China to Seattle, Yintao wants to learn English and make new friends at school. Still, he must make time to practice his violin for an important family recital to help his father get more studens. Yingtao is afraid his creeching violin will ruin the recital. But he's even more afraid to tell his family that he has found something he likes better than music. Together he and his new friend Mathew think of a sure way to save the recital. They are certain nothing will go wrong.
