About this ebook

Luc Waldon always figured he knew what his passion was: football.

Luc lives it, he breathes it—and he thinks he has what it takes to go all the way to the NFL. So when his football coach orders him to sign up for contemporary-dance classes to improve his game, Luc's less than thrilled. When he realizes that dance might actually be his true passion, he faces a tough decision. Is he willing to leave behind the field and a real shot at professional sports, and disappoint his parents, his coach and his teammates, in order to pursue a new dream?

This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for middle-grade readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don’t like to read!

This book talks about a boy who played lots of sports to help him with football, when suddenly his coach gives him the choice between taking contemporary dance or quitting the football team. The boy, Luc, chooses to take the dance classes and this changes his perspective and makes a huge impact on him. He has realized that dance is his true passion and now he must choose between following this new passion or continuing in football. I really enjoyed this books and even found myself relating to it.I loved it!
