The "New York Times" bestseller "I Hope You Dance" is a book of hope, encouragement, and inspiration. Now, the authors of the book and the song offer this wonderful and whimsical take on the "grown up" message of the book. "I Hope You Dance" for children is witty and fun, warm and fuzzy, wild and fanciful. For the kid in your life, here's the opportunity to say:

I hope you dance
Stir it up, baby, make a splash
do the shag and the monster mash
the cotton eyed joe and the hokey pokey
if you ain't got rhythm that's okey dokey
don't lay in the tub and bubble bath soaka
get your shimmy on the floor and do the zydeco polka

The message of the book is complemented by remarkable, delightful illustration and design by the award winning team of Buddy Jackson and Karinne Caulkins, which created the graphics for the adult version of "I Hope You Dance."
