Blurb:
Belle is going to spend the summer touring the South with Grandmama and a swing jazz band! Belle has never been outside Pecan Flats, Mississippi and she can't wait to go on the road with Grandmama. There are so many new things to see on their travels through the Deep South. But some things aren't new. Everything is segregated, just like at home. But Grandmama stands up for what's right. And when she sings, Belle knows that Grandmama's song can bring everyone together.
