The fate of a small drought-stricken town rests on a brave, empathic little girl, and her 'terrible' dancing.
This uplifting, humorous and beautifully illustrated picture book, celebrates the magnificence of kindness, compassion and community. Mina loves dancing but she is a terrible dancer. She is even banned from dancing in the end-of-year dance performance. Yet Mr. Brady's problems are even worse. The drought means no one is buying his umbrellas, and now he can't afford Christmas presents for his children. Can Mina use her 'terrible' dancing skills to make it rain and save Mr. Brady's Christmas? Author and psychologist Sarah McAneney masterfully weaves a tender story reminiscent of an earlier time in the dreamily illustrated picture book, Mina's Rain Dance. Mina's generosity of spirit is moving, as she persists against the odds in helping Mr. Brady and his children. More importantly, in creating her rain dance, Mina learns to ignore her critics and listens to her inner voice, accepting herself for who she is, and continuing to dance from her heart, unleashing her joy. This story will enchant young children ages 3-7. Further it will delight parents who hope to raise their children to be both empathic and self-compassionate individuals, who embrace their uniqueness and quirks along with those of others, while walking away from people and situations that are not so accepting. .
