Fearing that his classmates will ridicule his playing the kalimba in the school talent show, Joshua uses a magical Masai mask to transform himself into different people he thinks are more interesting, before realizing that his own identity is one of value. By playing the kalimba, an African musical instrument, in his school's talent show, Joshua gains self-esteem. An ideal read-along tale of self-discovery and acceptance, set in a supportive Harlem family.
