Book Synopsis

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.



Trade Review
“A delightful read-aloud that deals with making the best of a disappointing situation.” —School Library Journal “The exhilaration of the storm is at the center of Boswell’s debut picture book, and illustrator Velasquez is at his best in the dynamic unframed spreads that show the African American kid in warm shades of brown on her city street, leaping and shaking her arms at the gray stormy skies.” —Booklist
