Dance Team Drama (Jake Maddox JV Girls Series)

by Jake Maddox

Overview

Lily Richter and her family are moving, which means she’s leaving behind her BFF and the dance team — the two most important things in her life. Stuck in an unfamiliar school, she’s feeling lost and alone. Worse still, she isn’t connecting with her new teammates, and the captain seems to have it out for her. Now Lily’s moves are suffering as she falters in practice and in competition. Will she be able to get back in sync and dance to win? A glossary, writing prompts, discussion questions, and bonus competitive dance facts make this action-packed sports story as engaging and educational as it is exciting.

About the Author

Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler – or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps – literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.
