Malaika's mother can't buy her a carnival costume - will she still
be able to dance in the parade? It's Carnival time. The first
Carnival since Malaika's mother moved to Canada to find a good job
and provide for Malaika and her grandmother. Her mother promised
she would send money for a costume, but when the money doesn't
arrive, will Malaika still be able to dance in the parade?
Disappointed and upset at her grandmother's hand-me-down costume,
Malaika leaves the house, running into Ms. Chin, the tailor, who
offers Malaika a bag of scrap fabric. With her grandmother's help,
Malaika creates a patchwork rainbow peacock costume, and dances
proudly in the parade. A heartwarming story about family, community
and the celebration of Carnival, Nadia Hohn's warm and colloquial
language and Irene Luxbacher's vibrant collage-style illustrations
make this a strikingly original picture book. Correlates to the
Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts:
