Dance Y'all, Dance

by Kelly Bennett, Terri Murphy (Illustrator)

Overview

Telling the story of one perfect night when Sallie, Beau, and their family and friends dropped their cares and came together for some foot-tapping action, this rollicking tale recreates the excitement of the dance hall. Set in the not-too-distant past, the story reveals the dance hall as the hub of the community in rural areas—a place where people of all ages gathered together to share news, enjoy each other's company, and support each other in trying times.
