Emma Is on the Air: Showtime!

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Karla Peña. Eight-year-old investigative reporter Emma gets her third case when her dance teacher's prized tambora drum, critical to the dance troupe's Thanksgiving Day Parade performance, goes missing. Despite a rushed plot line, Emma's enthusiasm shines. The bilingual half-Dominican girl's narrative is peppered with Spanish phrases and illustrated with cartoony grayscale spot art.
