Author Notes:	Joana Pastro is the award-winning author of Bisa's Carnaval , Lucas and the Capoeira Circle , and LillyBelle: A Damsel NOT in Distress . Much like Lucas, sometimes she loses her ginga. Luckily, she's always been able to get it back. Originally from Brazil, Joana lives in Georgia with her husband, her three extremely creative children, a rambunctious Morkie, and a needy Maltipoo. Visit her at JoanaPastro.com. Douglas Lopes is an illustrator who graduated in social communication.
