Jeffrey Ballon Jones is a spikey-haired, overly energetic eleven-going-on-twelve- year-old who loves dance and soccer. He's a standout at his mom's dance studio and on the soccer team his dad helps coach. He has big dreams of being both a professional dancer and soccer player. Only his older sister Della and Lucy, a fellow dancer who knows just how to push Jeffrey's buttons, keep him grounded. Just as Jeffrey is riding high as a dancer, aspiring choreographer and soccer player, a freak incident threatens to dash all of Jeffrey's big dreams. But then a new group of friends, the Wheel-Runners, and Jeffrey's annoying friend Lucy, roll to the rescue, refusing to let Jeffrey give up on himself and his big plans. The questions they must answer together: What is dance? And who can be a dancer? "A wonderful story! Such a learning experience for those who read it. Teaches a lot about attitude, endurance, fortitude and not giving up!" -Mary Verdi-Fletcher, President/Founding Artistic Director Dancing Wheels Company & School
