But as she thinks about her strengths--tree-climbing, mochi making, collage--none of them feel quite right to perform on-stage. Jasmine's friends already have a talent: Tommy yo-yo's, Daisy dances, and Linnie plays piano. Plus, Maggie Milsap (aka Miss Perfect) is saying <i>she'll </i>have the best talent. <p/>When Jasmine's mom introduces her to the taiko, a traditional Japanese drum, Jasmine finally finds an activity that feels just right. But will she be good enough at taiko in time to beat Maggie Milsap? <p/>Join Jasmine as she discovers her talent--and the difference between being the best and <i>trying </i>your best.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><b>*A Chicago Public Library Best Book of 2018* </b><br><b>*A Junior Library Guild Selection* </b><br>*<b>A CYBILS Easy Reader and Early Chapter Book Award Winner*</b><br>*<b>A CCBC Best Book of the Year!*</b><br><b>*A Maryland Blue Crab Young Reader Award for Transitional Fiction!*</b> <p/>An enjoyable offering about trying new activities and finding just the right talent that makes us feel free and strong and happy. --<i>Kirkus</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Debbi Michiko Florence</b> is a third generation Japanese American, and has many fond memories of her family's traditions and growing up in California.
