Poor Lee! He used to be a jazzman who could make the piano go yimbatimba- TANG—zang-zang. But now he's lost his hearing, and the bandleader had to let him go.
So Lee goes to a school for the deaf to learn sign language. There, he meets Max, who used to play the sax. Riding the subway to class, they start signing about all the songs they love. A bass player named Rose joins in and soon they've got a little sign language band. And in no time they're performing for audiences in the subway, night after night.
Living legend and Kennedy Center honoree Pete Seeger, renowned poet Paul DuBois Jacobs, and Coretta Scott King honor winner R. Gregory Christie present a jazzy riff on the power of music, overcoming obstacles, and all the different ways to hear the world. So, who will listen to a deaf musician? Everyone!

The Deaf Musicians
The book does a good job of conveying the feeling of playing jazz, and then how hard it could be for a musician losing his hearing and having to find a new path. I did not get a good feeling for what it would be like listening to, or just watching, the quartet that the deaf musicians form.
I think the book's heart is in the right place, and it is inspiring, but the execution is a little bit lacking.
