Tia loves music and finds it at the house of an elderly lady. She takes
a job as a maid in exchange for piano lessons. When Miss Hartwell’s hands
are too stiff and sore to give Tia her piano lessons, Tia uses her mother’s
remedy of warm salty water to soothe her hands. One day after doing her
own work as well as the servant boy’s, Miss Hartwell discovers Tia’s sore
hands need that same magic remedy. Come share this beautiful story of two
friends brought together by their love of music. (Jean B. Bellavance
