Dancing through a family reckoning

Ieshia’s story connects dance with a turning point in her life: at 16, she becomes pregnant and is sent to live with her Aunt Velma after her father’s angry response. Ten years later, she is ready to face the past. Her son Malcolm also dances, giving dance a place in both generations of the family. The description frames the story around hope, forgiveness, and redemption, with a young pregnancy and its family consequences at the heart of the narrative.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in fiction about pregnancy and family relationships
  • Readers drawn to stories where dance is central to a character’s life
  • Those interested in themes of forgiveness and facing the past

Book overview

I'm Ieshia. I've been dancing for as long as I can remember. Dancing keeps me going.

When I was 16, I found out I was pregnant. My dad was so mad about it that he shipped me off to live with Aunt Velma. That was ten years ago.

I'm finally ready to face my truth, but when tension becomes too much, it's time to dance. My son, Malcolm, is a dancer too.

Come dance with me. Listen to my story of hope, forgiveness, and redemption. I've learned no matter what I go through, I can always dance-even in the rain.
