Can You Dance, Dalila? By Virginia Kroll

I really enjoyed this book. The illistrations were great and went along with the text really well. I liked how the girl, Dalila, didn't give up here curiosity and love for dancing as she went through all the types that she saw. She kept trying new types of dance until she finally found the one that she enjoyed and was good at in the end. She was very creative when she would try the new types of dances that she was introduced to. After the Irish dance she went home and put on a green dress to try to do the "jig." Another example was when she went home after the country dance and put on her snow boots to do the line dance. Another thing I liked about this book was the imagery used through similes and metaphors throughout the book.
