Grammy Say: "Don't Wait for the Boat to Come In-Swim Out to It" is a vibrant celebration of culture, courage, and taking bold steps toward your dreams.Set beneath the moonlit sky of Nassau Town, the rhythm of the goatskin drums stirs young Roody's soul-BOOM-bah, BOOM-bah-bah! The music calls him to move, to dream, and to act. But before he and his cousin Bina can rush into the colorful whirlwind of the Junkanoo parade, there's one important tradition to follow: Grammy's golden idiom of the night.When Grammy shares her timeless wisdom-"Don't wait for the boat to come in-swim out to it"-a spark is lit. The parade bursts into motion, filled with feathers, brass, and heart-thumping joy. Yet every step becomes more than just celebration-it's a classroom of life.Through the pulsing energy of the night and the guidance of Grammy's words, Roody discovers a powerful truth: life doesn't wait. Opportunity is not something you sit and hope for-it's something you go after with both feet dancing and your spirit wide open.This story weaves together Bahamian culture, family tradition, and motivational wisdom in a way that inspires readers of all ages to take action and pursue their dreams.
