Companion summary
Have you ever tapped your hands on a table and felt the beat travel right through you? Drummers keep everyone in a band together, like a heartbeat keeping you going. A drum called the djembe comes from West Africa and can sound like thunder or a tiny raindrop. When you finish, try tapping a steady beat on your knees while you hum your favourite song.

Can you pat a fast beat? Can you pat a slow beat?
