Jazz for Lunch! by Dapier, Jarrett

Last Stop on Market Street gets a jazzy twist in this finger-licking good celebration of music, food, and family.

Struttin' with Auntie Nina down to a club,
We're gonna hear some music and then eat some grub.
Wanna get up close, but we're stuck in the back,
We can't see the drums and we can't get a snack
But Auntie Nina's got a plan, don't you fret,
She's taking us to her place where we can get
JAZZ FOR LUNCH

Come on in, sit right down Cuz Auntie Nina and her nephew are cooking up a symphony of food and sounds. The lip-smacking smells and be-bopping tunes might just get the whole neighborhood shimmying over to join in. From Nat King Cole Slaw to Art Tatum Tots to Billie Hollandaise Sauce, get ready for some foot-stomping, finger-licking, booty-shaking, mouth-watering fun
