Description: In this flashback picture book, Patricia Polacco recalls family reunions and all of the special memories that can be made. Cousins come with food galore. Games are played, pictures taken, and stories from long ago told. However, with this particular reunion, a new activity is added…catching lightning in a jar. The magic of this story is in the words as well as the illustrations.
