About the Book
Skinny Minnie is a skateboard queen who can do flips, grinds, slides and all sorts of things. Best of all, she is a member of the fun-loving, talented, and diverse Cotton Kids gang!
Alejandro the Blazer is an inline skater who fakes the best tricks and claims to be the best in the state. Big Wheel Richie rides his big wheel through the neighborhood like a speeding light, spinning circles and kicking dust from the sand. Training Wheel Kasey is a little girl with big dreams to become a BMX rider. As the gang shows off their talents, they prove once again how much fun it really is to be a kid.
In this colorfully illustrated tale, four multi-ethnic children skate, ride, and spin through their neighborhood as they learn all about self-confidence, dreams, and how to believe in themselves.
