Publisher's Synopsis
A mother -- the author of this story -- shares Lakota cultural experiences with her daughter, introducing her to waci (dance) as a way to celebrate life. Wacipi (powwow), where the dancing occurs, is a setting for Indigenous song, dance, regalia, food and crafts.
A warm, family story for all ages, and brilliantly illustrated in Leah Dorion's trademark impressionistic beadwork style, Waci! Dance! visually embraces the joy of being together and caring for each other. A glossary and author's note are included.
