Maya is a young girl who loves to dance. In this rhyming picture book, she attends a lively dancing class with her friend. They practice their steps and follow the command of their teacher, who says in French, 'Plie, mes amis'. Maya loves everything about the dance: The costumes, grand entrances, music, the final bow and the magic of recitals.

A young narrator tells readers about her friend Maya, who absolutely loves to dance. In this rhyming picture book, Maya attends a lively dance class. She can’t get enough of dance: the costumes, the grand entrances, the pirouettes, the music, the final bow, and the magic of recitals. She even loves the hard work of practice. But why doesn’t her friend dance, too? The pages themselves seem to dance, thanks to the charming verse of Cheryl Willis Hudson and the vibrant colors and motion of Eric Velasquez’s paintings.
