Morrison captures the exuberant spirit of Miz Mozetta with...dynamic illustrations that dance to the beat of a fresh, rhythmic story. Duke Ellington is right - 'It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing' - and this vivacious offering definitely does., Words that bop and pictures that spin make this book so close to dance, readers won't be able to keep their feet from tapping., This story proves that the love of dance has no age limits. High-stepping, whirling images complement the rhythmic dialect of jazz clubs and bring Miz Mozetta...to life 'faster than a rat can scat.' This upbeat, multigenerational tale will have broad appeal., "Morrison captures the exuberant spirit of Miz Mozetta with...dynamic illustrations that dance to the beat of a fresh, rhythmic story.

Synopsis
Lively, colorful illustrations and a rhythmic text make for a jazzy dance party in this story about an elderly woman who recalls her days of dancing the jitterbug at the old Blue Pearl Ballroom and gets her chance to dance once more thanks to some neighborhood kids. Full color., "Okay, young cats, let the beat hit your feet." One fine evening, Miz Mozetta puts on her firecracker-red dress and heads outside to enjoy the moonlight. When she hears the neighborhood kids' music, she's inspired to dance, but her old friends have too many aches and pains to join her. The kids doubt that Miz Mozetta would be able to keep up with them. So she retreats to her parlor, where she dreams about the old days at the Blue Pearl Ballroom. Just when her feet are itching to get out there and do the jitterbug -- friends or no friends -- a knock comes on the door, and Miz Mozetta gets some welcome company. Lively, colorful illustrations and a rhythmic text make for a jazzy dance party that readers will delight in attending again and again. Jazzy Miz Mozetta is the winner of the 2005 Coretta Scott King - John Steptoe New Talent Award.

    I have purchased from them many times. This time, and on occasion I have had an issue with the product, but the seller is graceful about correcting errors. They do a huge volume and sometimes have sent the wrong book or one of their multiples that does not match the description. With swift communication, the seller always resolves the issue. The shipping speed & packaging is excellent. I will continue buying from this seller!
