This retelling is focused on Ayan, known as one of the best drum makers in the land, who faces challenges as he struggles to make the beautiful instruments he's famous for. The narrative unfolds in the context of a competition held by the queen to find the finest drums for the harvest festival. Ayan, despite having the right tools, materials, and skills, encounters difficulties with his hands. The story takes a turn when he receives help from the Aziza. The Ruby/Band 14 series offers increasing opportunities for children to develop their inference and deduction skills. The book includes pages 46 and 47 for revisiting the content, supporting comprehension, vocabulary development, and recall. Ideas for reading in the back of the book provide practical support and stimulating activities.
