Bookroo's summary

Emily, with her Mommy and Mama, ventures to the vibrant Rainbow Parade. While the colorful celebration excites them, joining the parade feels daunting to Emily. Can she find the courage to step off the sidewalk and into the march? This heartwarming tale explores the journey of embracing pride and discovering that there's no single way to belong to the LGBTQ+ community.

From the publisher

A sweet and celebratory story of a family’s first time at Pride One day in June, Mommy, Mama, and Emily take the train into the city to watch the Rainbow Parade. The three of them love how all the people in the street are so loud, proud, and colorful, but when Mama suggests they join the parade, Emily feels nervous. Standing on the sidewalkis one thing, but walking in the parade? Surely that takes something special. This joyful and affirming picture book about a family’s first Pride parade, reminds all readers that sometimes pride takes practice and there’s no “one way” to be a part of the LGBTQ+ community.
