Illustrated by
Stephanie Roth.
A multiethnic urban neighborhood welcomes the start of summer with a block party. Sulky Lola watches, angry her best friends didn't let her jump rope first. Soon, the bustle and excitement get to even Lola, and the three play and sit "close as three baby sparrows." Busy, bright illustrations swoop readers in and out of the action of this joyful June day.
