A Message From Dante

Dante would love to add more reviews to the site! If you'd like to write a review of the book, just send it to: dante@dantethedancinggoose.com. Thanks!

“Adorable!  I can see the 4 year olds in my life loving it.  The book has an imaginative 'see the world in a different way' quality (I can see those ducks dance in my mind's eye) that sets it apart from lots of the drivel that passes for children's literature.  She doesn't get all cutesy and talk down to children, but has a genuine sense of humor in her characters.”
– Elise, Gainesville, FL, Former Preschool/Elementary Director
 


“This is phenomenal.  I absolutely love it!!!  It reads so smoothly-- you avoided any semblance of cliché and went for some really unexpected rhymes, very polished! I can just hear 1st and 2nd grade teachers reading this to kids gathered around on the floor.”
– Kim, Lakeland, FL, Certified Media Specialist


 
 “B
rilliant children’s book...Lakeland natives will notice that Dante’s home bears a striking 
resemblance to Lake Morton. This book is fun and educational.”
– Rebekah, Lakeland, FL, Marketing Manager


"
I read it to my six year old & my four year old.  My six year old said, 'Read it again.'  My four year old also enjoyed it as evidenced by his chuckling three times during the story (and that was without pictures).  I've seen children's books at the library that are not as good as this story!"
- Lisa, Charleston, SC


"Dante’s story is a wonderful mix of rhyme, new vocabulary words and reading fun. As a preschool teacher, I’ve enjoyed reading this book to several classes, and everyone has enjoyed it! Colorful illustrations enhance this cute story of friendship, perseverance and success. Well done!"
- Jann, Inverness, FL, Preschool Director/Teacher


 
 

"I read Dante to my class today.  They loved it!!  It was so funny how they all picked up on all different things - the dances, the different birds, etc.  Thanks for helping to make Friday a good one!"
- Alison, Winter Haven, FL, 2nd Grade Teacher
