The Dancer in Me - Paperback

by Stephanie Butler Adams (Author)

Nell is a bright, spunky little girl. She has big dreams of being a star performer, but awkwardness and fear keep her secret love of dance locked safely inside of her very vivid imagination. One night, with the help of some creative angels and a little encouragement from above, Nell discovers her true potential and purpose through an unexpected gift! Author Stephanie Butler Adams pens a heartwarming story that any child or even young adult can relate to. THE DANCER IN ME is a fun read with unpredictable vocabulary that invites every reader to discover the wonder of their worth. For every child who ever dreamed a dream or wished a wish or imagined her magic; NELL dances us FREE! THE DANCER IN ME shines the light on what makes each of us "special", "unique", and "different". It is an encouragement to embrace and CELEBRATE the gift of Life at any age. There are so many wonderful ways in which NELL's story is my story and your story too! THE DANCER IN ME is the drum roll that will send us leaping and twirling into undiscovered waves of amazement. Rev. Dr. Cecelia Williams Bryant, Senior Episcopal Supervisor The African Methodist Episcopal Church Chicago, Illinois I love every word in this book! Each sentence stirs the reader's interest to discover more about Nell and about ourselves. Nell's story resonates what I believe are the hopes and dreams of all children and adults alike-regardless of the color of their skin. We yearn to find the best, brightest part of ourselves through trial and error; and when we do finally realize our God-given gifts and skills, just like Nell we'll know that "gifts are for keeps".
