Jameson can do anything as long as he's wearing green pants. He can dunk a ball, high-dive into a pool, and dance the night away. But after he agrees to be in his cousin's wedding, he learns the awful truth: he will have to wear a tuxedo to the ceremony. A tuxedo with black pants! Oh, the horror! How can Jameson be true to himself -- and his beloved green pants -- while still honoring his cousin's wedding request?
This is an adorable book about honoring your own sense of fashion while still compromising for the benefit of loved-ones. Children who have ever latched onto a particular outfit will likely identify with Jameson's reluctance to wear the tuxedo. His solution is delightful and will spark lots of smiles. I do wish he had another motivation to compromise other than his obvious and rather over-the-top crush on his cousin's fiancée, though.
