description: If your mom says to get ready to play at the beach she means with a boat or a Frisbee or a shovel. She is NOT talking about the piano. But Magnolia is a little girl with a big idea determination and one very heavy upright piano that she insists she needs to take with her. What's the worst that can happen? In a riotous series of mishaps Magnolia quickly learns that--not surprisingly--a piano doesn't mix well with sand sun and seagulls!
