LUNA LOVES DANCE

JOSEPH COEHLO * FIONA LUMBERS

CLICK ON THE BOOK COVER TO ORDER!
Picture
Picture
When Luna dances, she feels like the world’s volume turns up, like all colors brighten, like sunlight sparkles behind every cloud. But when she takes her dance test to move up to the big kid class, she ducks, dives, spins and... falls. Luna thinks she can’t be a real dancer now. Can Luna's family convince her otherwise?
"Lively, lyrical prose is well-matched by the vibrant, animated illustrations, expressively depicting cute Luna (who is biracial), her supportive family, and the inclusive array of other kids and adults. While dance-themed, this charming title provides an encouraging, uplifting message, primarily about surmounting self-doubt and finding delight in creative self-expression."
-- Booklist

"This sweet story and its uplifting messages is an easy purchase to recommend."
-- School Library Journal

"The 'real dancer' language fades away as Luna leaps 'over hard times, with joy,' on a spread full of color and laughter. This story taps into fears about being good enough and delivers a lovely message about doing what brings joy. … Just might have readers getting up to dance."
-- Kirkus Reviews
