Publisher Description
A rip-roarin’, rock ’n’ roll picture book by international music star Kevin Jonas and his wife, Danielle Jonas, about the joy of music, the power of family, and facing your fears.
Emma loves music.
She loves the boom boom boom of a good bass beat.
She loves the stomp stomp stomp her feet make when she dances.
She loves to rock out with her mom, her dad, and her little sister.
And she loves to twang, strum, and thrum on her guitar.
So when the sign-up sheet for the school talent show is posted, she adds her name right away! But the more Emma hears about the amazing talents her classmates will bring, the more nervous she gets. What if her guitar playing is more of a plink, plonk, squeak?
She’s suffering from a bad case of stage fright, and it’s up to her family to show her that performing can be fun too, and that she’s already a star.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
One-third of the Jonas Brothers teams up with his wife in this authorial picture book debut. Emma is the star of her family's dance parties—"She loves the BOOM BOOM BOOM of a good bass beat." Thanks to daily lessons from her father, she's a budding guitarist as well, excited to make her debut at the school talent show. A case of the jitters, a misplaced lucky charm, and a disastrous rehearsal leave Emma doubting herself, but with an infusion of dance party vibes from the white-presenting family, she overcomes performance fears and rocks out. If the text models problem-solving, instead of empathy, regarding the child's very real anxiety, the cheery, conversational text is matched by Dawson's sunny-hued, animation-style art, which centers schoolmates of varying skin tones. It's the picture book equivalent of a pop-rock bop. Ages 4–8.
