Dancers among us!

01/23/2013 by chicquero

“The inspiration for this book came to me one afternoon as I watched my son, Hudson, playing with his toy bus.

He saw frantic commuters rushing to catch the 77 local bus to Australia. He jumped in place, mouth open and slapping his knees, joyously reacting to […]
