IWanttoDance


By: Safa Ameer • Illustrations: Ensaf Haj Yaseen

“I want to dance/ I want to fly/ to spread my wings like a bird…” a rhymed text that celebrates dance as an innate and humanistic expression of child’s joy.

Age Group: The kindergarten

“I want to dance” says the child, expressing happiness in the spontaneous, humane and natural way of both modern and ancient cultures.

Dancing is a common cultural expression in the Arab culture, whether in a group or individual setting, among children and adults. Children dance at their birthday parties, and adults dance on happy occasions; they enjoy and express their feelings, communicate with each other, and develop skills in coordinating body movement and rhymes.

As the known poet, Elia Abu Madi says, “Be beautiful to see the world beautiful”, and this book adds “Be happy to see the world dancing!”.
