Cora, the Fabulous Dancing Flamingo - Hardcover

by Jennifer Sowers (Author)

Every so often, a children's book comes along that touches the soul of both the child reading it and the adult holding the book. Jennifer Sowers' Cora, the Fabulous Dancing Flamingo is exactly that kind of captivating story. It teaches children to confidently follow their dreams and be their authentic selves, no matter what others may say. When Cora the flamingo puts on a pair of pink pointe ballet shoes, the Elder birds in the lagoon cry out in shock: "It simply isn't done!" Despite protests, Cora's soul, longing to take flight, finds a way to be a ballerina. Written as a lyrical picture book with a beautiful, flowing, melodic quality, this whimsical story follows Cora as she dares to step out of her flock's expectations and follow the love inside her heart. Taking center stage takes immense courage, but Cora's belief in herself shines bright. Through her beginning steps and with a breathtaking sense of freedom, she turns the lagoon into her own grand theater. Each page dances with the unbridled joy of life, proving that anyone can break free from the "muck" and spin beautifully "beneath the light of the moon."
