Wally was the world's greatest piano-playing wombat-until he realized there was an even more talented piano-playing wombat in town!

This funny picture book's bright colors and imaginative musical scenes teach children to have self-confidence when faced with competition.

When Wally, the world's greatest piano-playing wombat, hears Wylie play, he becomes envious. Wally tries toe-tapping and ball-twirling as he plays piano, but every time Wally thinks he's one-upping the competition, he discovers Wylie can do all the same tricks. Although Wally is discouraged at first, he soon realizes that competing with Wylie inspires them both to play better. And finding a friend to share what you love? That's the best win of all.

Both affirming and motivating, Wally's story will resonate with young readers as they learn how to deal with competition and to do what makes them happy-even when they're not the very best.
