(3) K-3 An energetic brown-skinned boy, Jameson, only likes to wear his green pants ("he could do anything" in them). When he's asked to be in his cousin's wedding, he struggles with the prospect of wearing a black tuxedo. Individualistic Jameson's realistically childlike decision-making adds suspense to the family-centric story, and pencil and watercolor illustrations lend extra dimension with their telling details and intricate pattern work.
