How Do You Dance?

Thyra Heder, illustrated by Thyra Heder

A narrator asks how people dance and introduces many ways to move, from bopping and flitting to scrunching. A boy insists that he does not dance, even as the story suggests dancing in everyday places and for different reasons: after eating something tasty, while waiting, or to lift one’s spirits. Animals and adults join the examples. Eventually, the boy explains that he simply prefers to dance by himself, and he does so in his bedroom.
