 It s December at PS 72, and to Eddoe that means just one thing: getting ready for his big part in the annual holiday concert. It s just one note, but it has to be perfect, and Eddie s practice sessions with his school music teacher (Jonelle Allen) haven t been going too well. Eddie tries to get some tips as he watches his sister, Dee, prepare for a singing solo, his Aunt Rosa practice for her debut with the Hudson String Quartet, and his friend Vincent jamming with his jazz band. We even meet some professional musicians and composers, and find out how the theme for a movie like "Space Jam" gets created. All of this advice is useful, but, as it turns out, it is Miss Toliver s lesson on patterns that finally puts Eddie on the right track.
