When Langston Dances by Kaija Langley

A young Black boy dreams of dancing in this exuberant, buoyant picture book celebrating the beauty of dance, and the wonder of Black Boy Joy - perfect for fans of Firebird and Crown!

Langston likes basketball okay, but what he loves is to dance - ever since he saw the Alvin Ailey Dance Company perform. He longs to twirl into a pirouette, whirl into a pique. He wants to arabesque and attitude, grand battement and grand jete.

When he walks, the whole street is his stage. With his neighbourhood cheering him on, will Langston achieve his dream?
