Midnight is too late for kids to ring in the new year, so one very creative girl decides to throw a NOON year's party instead!

Grab your party hats and noisemakers...and get ready to count down to noon!

Every December 31st, Kirkley's family rings in the new year with black-eyed peas for luck, greens for treasure, and cornbread for gold at a party at midnight...which is WAY past her bedtime. But this year, the holiday is just for grownups. Not when Kirkley comes up with a clever plan to put her own twist on the traditions and countdown until twelve o'clock, making the day a party for everyone!
