Wandance 9

Book excerpt: Kaboku and Wanda take the dance floor in their own respective dance battles, and they soon learn that competition and cooperation are both just ways of sharing what's in your heart… Kaboku and Kabeya show up for their B-Boy battle, where figuring out a team name is only the first of their problems. They soon find themselves running into old friends, old antagonists-and at least one fearsome dancer who seems to have it out for Kabeya… If he and Kaboku are going to make it to the top of the contest, they'll have to figure out how to understand each other on the fly, or they might just get buried in the first round! Meanwhile, in Tokyo, Wanda is turning heads at Assay's showcase practice, and earning more than a little jealousy along the way. But when her fellow dancers see how devoted she is to her craft, they begin to open up to her, and new friendships seem like they could start to bloom…
