Step into a world where dance unlocks magic and adventure.

Twelve-year-old Abri and her fearless best friend, Kylie, never imagined that a mysterious tablet from a forgotten yard sale would change their lives forever. What begins as a fun way to learn new dance moves soon transforms into a breathtaking journey-each step and rhythm transporting them to faraway lands. From the serene beaches of Hawaii to the vibrant plazas of Spain, and even the mystical heart of the universe, Abri and Kylie discover that dance is more than movement-it's a bridge to understanding cultures, history, and the spirit of the world.

But magic comes with responsibility. As they uncover the secret of the tablet and the guardians who protect its power, they must decide: will they use this gift to learn and connect-or risk losing it forever?

Where the Spirit Dances is a heartwarming and adventurous middle-grade novel about friendship, courage, and embracing the rhythm that connects us all. Perfect for fans of magical realism and cultural adventures!
