Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Kameeka is confident that today she will finally beat her rival, Jamara, and become the Hula-Hoopin' Queen of 139th Street. But then Mama reminds her that today is their neighbour Miz Adeline's birthday, and Kameeka has to get ready for the party they are hosting. But then Miz Adeline's confesses something too: she's also got the itch - the hula-hoopin' itch! Her fingers start snappin'. Her hips start swingin'. Soon everyone's hips are swinging as the party spills out onto the street. The whole neighbourhood's got the itch - the hula-hoopin' itch!
Kameeka yearns to continue her hula hooping competition with her rival, Jamara, rather than help prepare for Miz Adeline's birthday party, and "the itch" almost ruins the party before the girls learn who the real winner is.
