Sassy tries out for a summer dance festival in Washington, D.C., despite the other girls' taunts that she is much too tall. Full-color illustrations.
Book Synopsis
Sassy worries that her too-large feet, too-long legs, and even her big mouth will keep her from her dream of becoming a star ballerina. So for now she's just dancing in the wings, watching from behind the curtain, and hoping that one day it will be her turn to shimmer in the spotlight. When the director of an important dance festival comes to audition her class, Sassy's first attempts to get his attention are, well, a little wobbly. But Sassy just knows, somehow, that this is her time to step out from those wings, and make her mark on the world. Actress/choreographer Debbie Allen and Kadir Nelson collaborated on Brothers of the Knight, about which School Library Journal raved, the strutting high-stepping brothers are full of individuality, attitude, and movement.
Review Quotes
Nelson's artwork conveys Sassy's spirit and captures well the expressions of her smug, mocking classmates. A great read-aloud. ( School Library Journal)
About The Author
Actor, director, dancer/choreographer and singer, Debbie Allen's career has touched nearly every facet of the entertainment industry.

Allen's Broadway career as a dancer, singer and actor began in the chorus of Purlie. She next appeared in Raisin, then in the 1979 production West Side Story, for which she won a prestigious Drama Desk Award, as well as, her first Tony Award nomination. Allen received another Tony Award nomination in 1986 for her role as Bob Fosse's Sweet Charity.

Allen's choreography career soared in 1980 with the international hit TV series Fame. In 1988 she went behind the scenes to choreograph the new American Musical Carrie with the Royal Shakespeare Company and has continued to devote herself to that discipline. She holds the distinction of having choreographed the Academy Awards for five consecutive years. Allen collaborated with James Ingram to create Brothers of the Knight which played at the prestigious Kennedy Center in Washington, DC in the spring of 1998.

As Resident Director of the hit television series Fame, in which she also starred, Allen went on to direct episodes of Family Ties, Bronx Zoo, A Different World and the pilot for The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, which she also produced. Her work with made-for-television movies, such as Disney's Polly and CBS's Stompin at the Savoy earned a reputation as one of the most sought after directors in Hollywood.

Recently, she directed the Martin Luther King special, entitled One Day for the Disney Channel as well as the critically acclaimed Linc's Place for Showtime.

Allen received international recognition as producer of Steven Spielberg's breathtaking Amistad As an actress, Allen received three Emmy Award nominations and one Golden Globe for her role as Lydia Grant in Fame She also received favorable notices for her role as Deloris Jordan in Fox Family Channels Michael Jordan: An American Hero and as Richard Pryor's feisty wife in the semi-autobiographical film Jo Jo Dancer, Your Life is Calling.

Other feature films to her credit include Milo Forman's Ragtime and The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh. This year she amazed audiences and critics alike with her portrayal of Harriet Tubman in Harriet's Return at the Geffen Playhouse.

Some of Allen's many honors include Essence Awards in 1992 and 1995, the first Lena Horne Award for Career Achievement at the Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards and two honorary doctorates, one from the North Carolina School of the Arts and the other from her alma mater, Howard University.

Allen currently resides in Los Angeles with her husband, Norman Nixon, and their two children, Vivian Nichole and Norman Jr.

Amelia Bedelia Goes Camping by Peggy Parish

# data[].attributes.body
This is a fun and goofy book about Amelia Bedelia as she conquers the great outdoors through several camping activities. Fun fact, this is one of my favorite books as a child. My mother bought it for me when we went on our first camping trip.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Ever since Amelia Bedelia made her debut in 1963, young readers have been laughing out loud at the antics of this literal-minded but charming housekeeper.

Amelia Bedelia has never been camping in the great outdoors before. She's trying her best to do exactly as she's told, but pitching a tent is not the same as throwing it into the bushes, and catching a fish with your bare hands isn't easy. As usual, the mixed-up housekeeper makes this camping trip one hugely entertaining adventure. This Level 2 I Can Read is perfect for kids who read on their own but still need a little help.

"No child can resist Amelia [Bedelia] and her literal trips through the minefield of the English language-and no adult can fail to notice that she's usually right when she's wrong."- The New York Times Book Review

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
In this beautifully illustrated book, one busy family finds lots to do from sun up to sunset. At the campsite, there's wood to chop for the fire and fish to catch. And there's lots of time to explore, climb rocks, splash in the lake, and discover animals in the shadows of the woods. As afternoon turns to evening, supper needs to be made, and just before bed, stories are told around the campfire. is as instructional as it is delightful. Each painting highlights the tracks of one animal, which curve from the text into the illustration. Readers can turn to the glossary for more details about the wildlife depicted on each page.
