Angie loves to dance. Angie loves many activities, along with all the shoes she wears while doing them. She enjoys dancing shoes, garden shoes, hiking boots, and rain boots—such an adorable and beautifully illustrated story for young readers.

My niece loved the book and the illustrations.
I loved it to.
It was a light read.
I recommend it.

This is as cute, though was expecting a book about dancing based on the title and cover. I enjoyed the fun unexpected words my daughter learned.

All around perfect story for any little girl. The story is written in rhymes and follows Angie going all all sorts of adventures in different shoes. The best part was the morale at the end, it doesn’t matter what you wear or the shoes on your feet. Lively story and beautiful illustrations.

Like the title states, Angie Loves to Dance. However, she also likes to do many other things! Follow along as she puts on different types of shoes and participates in a wide-range of activities. This is a simple story that shows you can have different interests and that all of these parts of you combine to make you special just as you are. The watercolor art is a unique touch and made it feel soft and whimsical. This a great book for preschool or early elementary aged students and short enough to hold those brief attention spans.

Thanks to BooksGoSocial and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

I read this book with my daughter this afternoon and she loved it!

She attends dancing lessons every week and loved any stories where the main characters do, and have similar hobbies or passions to her so I guessed that this one would be a hit with her and it certainly was. She really enjoyed it from start to finish and there was plenty for us to talk about too after the book finished.

The illustrations were lovely and they worked really well with the story to bring it all together.
It was well written and easy to follow and laid out really well. The text was nice and clear and not clouded by the illustrations.

It is 5 stars from me for this one - very highly recommended!

Angie Loves to Dance was absolutely adorable.

The secondary font used to emphasize text on each page was stunning and the watercolor illustrations added to the whimsy.

You can tell this was created with care, delight and heart and it's a sweet read to add to your kiddo's bedtime routine!
