When Noah hears beautiful piano music sweeping through the station, he longs to play. Without a piano
of his own, he carefully crafts one out of paper, and the notes fill his head night and day.
Until finally, with the help of a neighbour, his musical dream comes true . . .
An inspirational picture book about the power of perseverance and music, celebrating the joy that railway station pianos can bring to all.
Written by award-winning author Rachel Ip, with artwork from award-winning illustrator Natelle Quek.
When Noah made it his own paper piano and he could hear the music

Noah was not patient but it reminded me of when I wanted to play a piano too. I was so excited and I thought I would make a beautiful song at first but it didn't go fine until my dad printed some papers and taught me how to play and know which keys to press. In the book, Noah's mummy's friend taught him how to play the piano then he performed to his mum and sister and then he performed to the whole world and it was beautiful.

I liked this book because it showed a little story about a boy who learned to play piano and I think it will inspire other people to do different things.
