This book made me rediscover my love for dancing. As a single parent of 4 kids, life, well, is hectic. Every going day, the life-blood of my sanity is drained from my being, running around in tightly packed, paper-thin schedules. As life flew by, In the 14 years of this soul-sucking grind, I have never had even a shred of a minute to stop, think, and perhaps smile a little. Until now. This dancing super novel made me rediscover my spark. I now know that whenever life gets atop my spirits, I can “dance to the beat” and everything will be okay. I thank the writers of this book for their amazing support and guidance. 5 Stars.
