The game is tied at seven.
A hush falls over the stands.
Get up and stand up, everybody!
Here comes the band!
Everyone has their favorite part of a football game, but at a historically Black college or university, halftime is game time when the band takes the field in this glorious celebration of the tradition and pageantry of an HBCU band.

Recenzii
★ "Capturing the precision, spirit, and cultural pride at the heart of the show, it’s a dynamic collective performance that spotlights the experience of a young “biggest fan.”"
★ "Richly saturated spreads pulse with movement, musicality, and Black joy, capturing not only the precision and pageantry of each performance group but also the communal exhilaration radiating between performers and crowd. Readers new to marching bands and those long-steeped in their thrills will be equally hooked from the first page all the way to the last, where informative notes from the creators trace the enduring cultural significance of HBCU marching bands, as well as their own personal connections to the topic.
Halftime is game time—and now storytime, too."
★ "A great read-aloud to introduce readers to all the grace and rhythm of marching bands as well as the vibrant, enduring culture present at HBCUs."
