A tender and moving story of a young boy's struggle to find his place in the world, this is the story of Ari, an eleven-year-old boy with a gift for music. He has already had to face some big issues in his life: emigrating from Germany to Australia with his mother, leaving behind his beloved grandfather, whom he and his mother have lived with since the death of Ari's father in a car accident; developing a relationship with his new stepfather, Jamie; and learning how to deal with his musical talent, the expectations it places on him, and what it will mean for his future.
