The very first words Zakir hears from his famous father, Allarakha, are bols — rhythms played out on tablas! From then on, bols sing and dance in his head, on Amma’s cheeks, on the pots and pans in the kitchen… Sandhya Rao follows these beats, stringing together little vignettes from his life. From a childhood around music to the highs of a performer who took the tabla to the world, this joyous story introduces children to a musical genius, whose busy fingers and flying curls make him the inimitable Zakir Hussain. Illustrator Priya Kuriyan’s fingers add their own magic.

"Do you want to learn to play the tabla?" This book is suitable for kids 5 years and above. The beautiful illustrations shows the life of young Zakir, hearing his father's words, playing with his mother and siblings. The pictures are so good that it kept me hooked. I want to preserve these carefully. I got this from Rachnaye app. Go grab your copy.
