Meet Fevah Seren, a 7500-year-old middle grade student. All Fevah dreams about ALL day, EVERY day, is to represent her planet at the largest galactic dance event of the year - The Great Galactic Dance Competition. This is her destiny, she just knows it! Everything is going according to plan until she gets sick, just days before the Tryout for the prestigious glimmer and glam of the high-voltage L-Hite Dance Squad. When her dance director gives her an extension, Fevah is thrilled, but as the days pass, she has doubts about her perfectly curated dance skills as she watches her best friend out-dance her. Fevah's downward spiral comes to an end when an unassuming audience throws their wisdom into the galactic ring and teaches her valuable life lessons that could change her life forever. "She has the skill, but does she have the will to make it happen?" Fevah connects with her readers by revealing her strengths, weaknesses, opinions and beliefs through her quirky and individual journal entries. These stories can teach children aged 8 and older to have bold ambitions and to reach higher than they initially imagined. Fevah wants her readers to know that experiencing anxiety and self-doubt is normal. When you have a major goal, you need to hang on to it and manage the negative inner self-talk that stands in the way of achieving that goal. This book is essential for primary and middle school grade teachers, dance school coordinators, and parents/caregivers of ambitious children.
