Darrius was born with three fingers on his right hand and one on his left hand. He had to work hard to do .things that were easy for others. Every time his classmates tried to help him, he would say, "Thanks, but I can do it myself." He learned to use the four fingers to do different things.

When Darrius was 10, he told his father that he liked piano music very much. "It's too bad you can't play," his father said. But the boy took that as a challenge. "I will show people that I can," he said to himself.
