Publisher's Synopsis
Almost nine years old, Kitty has been rejected since birth by her alcoholic father because she isn't a boy. She doesn't speak but understands what people are saying. Her father is promoted to another state and wants her gone before he comes back to move his wife, Susan, with him. Susan gets help from her brother-in-law and escapes to his sister Ida's farm. Ida, a retired professional pianist, trains the gifted Kitty to a point beyond her own expertise. Ida contacts her musical mentor, Lorenzo, to visit and listen to Kitty, then give them advice. A strong, loving bond immediately forms between Kitty and Lorenzo, and that bond takes them into an amazing future, a story that begs to be told.
