ONE OF PEOPLE’S FAVORITE BACK-TO-SCHOOL BOOKS
Milo wants to get excited for the school dance, but he can’t—because he’s cursed. Every time he tries to dance, something goes horribly wrong. Like at his cousin’s wedding, when he tripped into the cake… Or on Halloween, when he nearly got a concussion after an ill-timed wipeout…
His best friends, Al and Viv, are determined to help Milo break the curse—and find the confidence to enjoy the dance. And they’re not alone, because Milo’s abuela, a legendary dancer, is moving in. Abuela knows Milo has what it takes to follow in her—literal—footsteps.
But with several new mishaps in his way, does Milo have any chance of putting his best foot forward?
