This is the home of Matt Robinson’s series on the power of music to shape and support young people academically, emotionally, and socially.
Here is an introductory interview with author Matt Robinson in which Matt explains the project and asks for support:
The first book in Matt’s series is Pete’s Percussion.
SYNOPSIS:
Pete’s Percussion is the first book in a planned series of four (one for each musical family) designed to support music education, cultural awareness, and personal development.
In the book, a young man named Pete who is struggling with ADHD develops a distracting habit of tapping on every available surface. With the help of an inspirational music teacher, Pete learns how to channel his energy more productively into drumming. In the process, he also learns about the instruments of the percussion family, the cultures that shaped them and, most importantly, about himself.
