A few people are even concerned the flag will lead to something truly outlandish: a pride parade.Except Jake doesn't think that's a ridiculous idea. Why can't they hold a pride festival in Barton Springs? The problem is, Jake knows he'll have to get approval from the town council, and the mayor won't be on his side. And as Jake and his friends try to find a way to bring Pride to Barton Springs, it seems suspicious that the mayor's son, Brett, suddenly wants to spend time with Jake.But someone that cute couldn't possibly be in league with his mayoral mother, could he?AN ALA RAINBOW LIST PICK!SMALL TOWN PRIDE is a 2022 Goodreads Choice Awards Finalist for Best Middle Grade and Children's Book!
