A spunky African American girl has a hula hooping competition with her friends in Harlem, and soon the whole neighbourhood — young and old alike — joins in on the fun.
Kameeka is confident that today she will finally beat her rival, Jamara, and become the Hula Hoopin' Queen of 139th Street. But then Mama reminds her that today is their neighbor Miz Adeline's birthday, and Kameeka has a ton of chores to do to get ready for the party they are hosting.
With vibrant illustrations by Vanessa Brantley-Newton, Hula Hoopin' Queen is a charming celebration of family and community ties. Set in Harlem, this intergenerational sotry shows the importance of staying young at heart.
