About this title: Reginald loves playing his violin--he's always practicing, and loves listening to the sweet sounds that come from the sleek strings. But his father, a coach for a baseball team, wants him to be the batboy for the team and focus less on his violin. Reginald knows that he loves music too much to give it up, but how can he make his father understand how he feels? With watercolor illustrations throughout.

"I really liked this story about a boy who is better at playing violin than being a bat boy in the final year of the Negro National League. This is a simple story of a father who learns to appreciate his musically gifted son who becomes a good luck charm for the Dukes baseball team.
E. B. Lewis' signature water color lends a soft edge to this touching story."
"great book about gender and music. A boy plays violin while his professional ball player dad is mildly annoyed and trying to get him to play ball instead. In the end ball and violin come together so that dad learns his lesson and his son saves the day and is able to shine and be himself AND be loved and appreciated."
