Today is the day of the big neighborhood parade. Baton twirler Jazmin is
ready to lead the way for the dogs and kids, music and fun. But then the
clouds crowd in. The sky darkens. Thunder roars. And the rain begins.
SLAP clatter clatter SLAP SLAP! Is Jazmin's parade ruined? Or can she
use her spirit, her fearless energy, and her mighty baton to save the
day? Award-winning illustrator Eric Velasquez's artwork in oil paint on
watercolor paper is a perfect complement to debut author Addie Boswell's
lyrical, rhythmic words.
