When Daisy tries to help with her cousin's wedding, her misguided assists almost ruin the big day, until she finds a way to pull the dressand her familytogether in this charming picture book by award-winning author Olugbemisola Rhuday-Perkovich. Daisy loves helping her family and she knows the best kind of helpers never wait to be asked. That's why she doesn't ask before adding finishing touches to her family's special reused, re-tried, remixed things, like a leftover broccoli topping for Auntie Fontie's cakes or a good bath for Nana DJ's "back-in-the-day, rusty, dusty" vintage albumsmuch to their chagrin. But what Daisy wants most is to help give her cousin Simone's recycled wedding dress a little razzle dazzle. She knows just what the vintage dress needs: a little glitter here, a few stickers there to give the dress some flair. But Daisy's cousin Simone and the rest of the family are not so happy with her decorations. Can Daisy make things right and help find Simone a new re-lived, re-loved wedding dress?
