Girls cannot be drummers. In 1920s Cuba, an island filled with
music, no one questioned that rule — except for one young girl.
In her city of drumbeats, she dreamed of pounding tall congas
and tapping small bongós. She had to keep quiet. She had to
practice in secret. But when at last her dream-bright music was
heard, everyone sang and danced and decided that both girls and
boys should be free to drum and dream. Inspired by the
childhood of Millo Castro Zaldarriaga, a Chinese-African-Cuban
girl who broke Cuba's traditional taboo against female
drummers, Drum Dream Girl tells an inspiring true story
for dreamers everywhere.Book, 44 pages.Drum Dream
Girl is used in Jeanette Shorey's book
Stories that Sing, Too!.
