“Lynn Panting, a St. John’s-based dance and theatre artist, continues making dance accessible to all with the release of her first children’s book, We Dance High, Low, Fast & Slow. The concise, instructive text by Panting and action-oriented illustrations by Jessie Meyer allow readers to experience a creative movement class. ”

“I liked the simple language the kids could easily understand. Without me telling them to, they immediately stood up and started moving/dancing to the words as I read them.
Once we were finished reading, [the kids] asked if we could start over!”
— Jessica Blanchard
