This heartwarming narrative captures the joy and challenges of a young dancer’s journey.

TEMPLE, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, July 24, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Christine Leonardi-Kramer, in partnership with Studio of Books, published her latest children’s book “My Recital Day.”

This delightful tale promises to captivate readers of all ages with its vibrant storytelling and captivating illustrations.

"My Recital Day" beautifully portrays the journey of a young girl who adores dancing. Readers will follow her as she navigates the excitement and challenges of performing on a big stage, discovering not only the joy of dance but also its profound impact on herself and those around her.

Author Christine shared that her inspiration for "My Recital Day" stems from the experiences and stories shared by her students, whom she credits for motivating her to transform their collective memories into a captivating narrative.

Jonah Meyer of the US Review of Books praises the book, stating, "Author Leonardi-Kramer, who spent fifty years in the dance world and has taught dance to generations of students, has created here a lively, bright, and inspirational children’s picture book. With attractive, full-bleed illustrations of eye-catching color and movement on each and every page, her book delivers joy as it delights the senses. The enthusiasm and love for dance, which the young protagonist in these pages exudes, is contagious from the very start. Children might easily identify with the bit of nervous energy—the butterflies in the stomach—which the young dancer experiences moments before her big show, yet, as is pointed out in the story, there really is nothing at all to be afraid of. She knows her dance routine inside and out and has practiced well and learned so much from her teachers. In the end, she shines, as does this delightful picture book."

Christine was interviewed by Benji Cole of the People of Distinction network. They discussed the author’s message and inspiration for writing this inspiring children’s book. Listen to the full interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjjcSHQAPlk.
