An exuberant picture book written by Alliah L. Agostini and illustrated by Shamar Knight-Justice is about a Black boy with big dancing dreams who learns the meaning of courage and community. It's the weekend, first in June; speaker's blasting out big tune! Cousins, aunties, uncles, friends pack the house, and fun begins. Shane is shy but loves to dance-and all year long, he's picked up cans to earn some money toward his goal: high-tops with a pump-up sole. But then the speaker blows-it's done! Will this stop his family's fun? Can Shane come through to save the day and bring back Big Tune Saturday? Set within a vibrant Caribbean American neighborhood and told to a rhythmic beat, "Big Tune" is a story of Black boy joy that touches on determination, confidence to express who you are, selflessness, and community gratitude
