Produktbeschreibung
Without realizing it, many of us have forgotten the joy of expressing ourselves through movement and dance. In this story, Annie and Arthur remind us that we can all rekindle that joy. Annie finds a new dancing partner when she smashes into Arthur one day at school. He introduces her to a new style of dancing and with his help and the help of her friends, she discovers that she can dance and move in ways she never imagined. Annie and Arthur ask other school children to join in the fun of movement and dance. Now Annie includes new steps whereever she goes, dancing around the house, at school, and down the street. This story supports children's development through music and movement, and helps parents remember when they danced as children. It encourages us to rekindle the creative side of ourselves through our innate love of music and dance. Annie's dancing affects her whole brain structure. Known as whole brain learning, movement helps to make connections between the right side or rational part of the brain and the left side of the brain which is concerned with creative activity.
