Urban, L. (2009). A crooked kind of perfect. NY: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt.
If there is something to learn about this story is
that “life is not perfect!” For Zoe, early in the book, we
learn that she is a very determined girl who has her mind
set on becoming a professional pianist. Unfortunately,
her dreams become halted by the type of “piano” she
receives. The Perfectone D-60, definitely is not what she
was expecting and sets the stage the events that begin to
follow. As the story progresses, things begin to fall in
place and eventually the puzzle becomes complete. She
ended up discovering her talent, and realized that things do not have to be perfect in order for things to work
out. She discovered she was great at playing the D-60,
which allowed her to enter an organ competition,
which indirectly, also gave her a new best friend. Even
though this book is most leaned towards children, adults
can also benefit from reading this book and learning an
important part of life: embrace what comes your way,
even if it's not what you planned for, sometimes it works
out for the best!
