The Twirly Wiggly Dance

Little Intisar has a BIG job at her Auntie Mahira’s wedding: she’s going to dance in the group performance! As she practices, she realizes there’s one dance move that she just can’t do—no matter how hard she twirls and wiggles. Can Intisar’s family of movers and groovers show her that being herself is far more fun than being perfect?

Join author Farrah Riaz to celebrate The Twirly Wiggly Dance; a relatable story about finding your own groove, set against the celebratory backdrop of a South Asian wedding. With an interactive storytime, a henna-themed drawing activity, and of course lots of dancing.
