When I’m dancing, I’m invincible! Nothing can touch me!

My grandmother, Ammamma, is my dance teacher and my best friend. But what happens when the one person who believes in you isn’t there to guide you anymore? How can I carry on dancing when other things have swallowed me up, like grief. Is it time to give it up altogether … or do I just have to find a new dance?

Online lesson plans provide guidance in using this book in a range of settings, including independent, social and whole-class reading – all designed to support the reader to connect with the book and encourage a positive attitude to reading.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Annika, an M.Ed in early childhood special education and MPH in maternal and child health, has over a decade of experience in education, advocacy, and communications. Her writing career began in 2015 with romcom novels starring South Asians, and she recently expanded to middle grade stories with a cultural twist. She is represented by Donaghy Literary Group. She founded and sold That Desi Spark, a South Asian media platform, and has served as a leader in her community since 2019. Annika lives in New York City and loves to read, travel, and spend time with loved ones.

Born and raised in the bustling streets of the eastern part of India, Sayani Ray's creative home for many years has been Kolkata. Sayani always loved to draw and doodle, and that passion just never faded. As a self taught artist, she is continually inspired by children’s book illustrations and the worlds those images create in her mind. Sayani's art is all about expressing different emotions using her iPad, and sometimes clay or watercolours. She found herself lucky enough to work with Penguin Random House on her very first children's book project. When she's not dabbling in procreate, Sayani loves dancing, reading and listening to music. She also loves making friends, and more so if they come in the form of cats or dogs. If she wasn't an artist, she'd probably be a feline.
