On the day of her aunt's wedding, Anna, the flower girl, is unable to stop sneezing. Everyone, from her father to the photographer to the rabbi, offers suggestions for controlling sneezes, but Anna is still worried she won't be able to hold it in during the ceremony. Sweet, pink-dominated illustrations complement the slight story; a note explaining Jewish wedding traditions is appended.
