This lively story will leap into the hearts of kids and their grandparents alike as it celebrates intergenerational relationships in rhyming text. Nana can make any object a dancing partner. An umbrella, a broom, even a rake! Both onstage and off, she can shimmy, she can mambo,and do the bunny hop. She' s won prizes and can dance to grandpa' s music or to her own beat. But nothing is more special than when grandma dances with her grandchildren. This fun story is filled with the movement, energy, and laughter that comes when kids dance with their grandparents.
An ode to dancing grandmothers from a range of backgrounds, this picture book celebrates the fun that Nana creates, whether she' s shake-a-shaking, shimmying, or doing the salsa. Yolen and her first grandchild, Stemple-Piatt, who both trained in ballet from a young age, join forces for this dance-centered narrative. . . A cadenced celebration of grandparent-grandchild relationships. -- "Publishers Weekly"
