the little float that could by Yvonne Perret
The big day has arrived and the youngest riders in the Mardi Gras Day parade are ready to share their beads and trinkets with the children of New Orleans. But as they prepare to start the parade, their float falters and breaks a wheel. Will the children be able to bring the magic of Mardi Gras to the Crescent City?
In this Louisiana adaptation of The Little Engine That Could, the children must work together and ask for assistance from other floats as they try to celebrate the spirit of the day. From their costumes as Louisiana animals to their discussion of leaving the float den across the river from the parade, the story provides local details to help initiate young readers in the mysteries of Mardi Gras.
