Yang the Youngest and his Terrible Ear by Lensey Namioka

Yang the Youngest and his Terrible Ear by Lensey Namioka

Everyone in the Yang family is a talented musician except for nine-year-old Yingtao, the youngest Yang. Even after years of violin lessons from his father, Yingtao cannot make beautiful music.
Now that his family has moved from China to Seattle, Yingtao wants to learn English and make new friends at school. Still, he must make time to practice his violin for an important family recital to help his father get more students. Yingtao is afraid his screeching violin will ruin the recital. But he's even more afraid to tell his family that he has found something he likes better than music.
Together he and his new friend Matthew think of a sure way to save the recital. They are certain nothing will go wrong.

Ties that Bind, Ties that Break, and its companion, An Ocean Apart, a World Away, are written by Lensey Namioka, who has also written four books on the Yang family, including Yang the Youngest and His Horrible Ear and Yang the Third and Her Impossible Family. The author is based in Seattle, Washington.
