Kenya's homework is to pick her favorite song and share it with her
class. Sounds simple, but for Kenya, it's anything but. With all that
beautiful music in the world, how can she possibly choose? Her family
and friends try to help by offering their favorite songs as choices, but
it's no help to Kenya. While those around her have made some great
suggestions, Kenya has a hard time calling any one of them her favorite.
For inspiration, Kenya accompanies her father to the Caribbean Cultural
Center where he plays music. Kenya hears music from Cuba and Trinidad,
Haiti and Puerto Rico. She hears music in all different
languages--French, English, Spanish. But still, Kenya can't decide which
song she likes best. Finally, Kenya makes her decision--one that will
surprise readers while inspiring them to listen to the world around
them.
