Peter’s Joyful Noise

They laugh at his noisy one-man band. But what if the greatest talent isn't making music, but having the courage to make a joyful noise?
The Arts Incubator - Winnipeg September 5, 2025

Short Stories from Art Borups Corners and The Arts Incubator Winnipeg

Written by Kendall Suluk and published by the Arts Incubator Winnipeg and Art Borups Corners Storytelling Club, Peter’s Joyful Noise is a heartwarming story that asks: What if your special talent isn’t what anyone expects? Peter dreams of impressing everyone at the annual school talent show. He tries singing, dancing, and jokes, but nothing quite feels like him. That is, until a magnificent kitchen clang sparks a brilliant, noisy idea: a one-man band made of pots, pans, and a very unique colander helmet!

With his new invention, “The Kitchen Crash,” Peter fills his home with a joyful, clanging rhythm that makes his family smile. But as the big day approaches, surrounded by traditional acts like magicians and ballerinas, Peter’s butterflies start doing somersaults. Will he be brave enough to share his loud, messy, and wonderfully unique music? This vibrant tale celebrates the dignity of the self, reminding young readers that true happiness and courage come from embracing who you truly are, even when it’s a little bit noisy.
