Happy Feet: The Savoy Ballroom Lindy Hoppers and Me

Happy Feet is the nickname of the boy in this story. We listen in as his father tells him about the night of his birth. It was also the opening night of the Savoy Ballroom. In the back of the book are helpful author's notes that give us a brief lesson on the Savoy Ball Room and famous dances of the times. I learned a lot by reading this book. I had never heard of the Savoy ball room before reading this book. Children who are interested in the history of dance will enjoy this book.

Happy Feet is such an important book to have out there for children. The historical importance of the Savoy Ballroom and Lindy Hop was beautifully layed out in this book. Incredible illustrations and very accurate writing. Great job!
