Read It. Move It. Share It.
This month I mixed it up a little. I recommended not one but TWO books for independent dance educator Maria Hanley to incorporate into her creative movement classes in New York City. After reading this post to learn more about the books, head over to Maria's blog to see how she used them in her classes. And thanks to publisher Blue Apple Books for supplying review copies of both books!
When I saw the new board books SWING! Like a Monkey and WIGGLE! Like an Octopus, I knew right away that I wanted to highlight them on my blog. Because many dance educators use animals to inspire movement in their classes, I thought the books would be perfect tools to assist them.

Sooo cute!
Thanks, Brooke!
Two books! What a treat! As always, I am amazed by how you seamlessly integrate your picturebook reviews with dance. I have just recently met a dance teacher from New Zealand who visited Singapore for an arts research, and I was kind of reminded of you and what you do. ;-)
Thanks, Myra. That's sweet :) I actually hope to make it to Singapore one of these days, too. My husband has been twice and loves it!
