This fun story is filled with the movement, energy, and laughter that comes when kids dance with their grandparents.  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.
