Book
Finding my dance / by Ria Thundercloud ; illustrated by Kalila J. Fuller.
"In her debut picture book, professional Indigenous dancer Ria Thundercloud tells the true story of her path to dance and how it helped her take pride in her Native American heritage"-- Provided by publisher.
"At four years old, she was brought into the powwow circle, proudly wearing the special jingle dress made by her mother. She performed with her brothers all over Indian country. Then she learned other styles like tap, jazz, and ballet—but sometimes she felt like an outsider. At school, she was the only Indigenous girl in her class. Now a professional dancer, Ria has traveled the world knowing her ancestors are watching over her. She returns to her homelands and the sound of drums and feels proud to be Native American." -- Inside flap.
