Dancing Broccoli: A Sparkling Rainy-Day Story of Brave and Playful Vegetables

On rainy days, children walk with umbrellas.
And in a quiet lunchbox, broccoli is left behind.
But that night, when no one's watching, broccoli begins to dance.
Dancing Broccoli is a gentle story
about looking at the rain instead of hiding from it,
feeling okay to be a little different,
and finding courage in simply being yourself.
With swimsuits instead of umbrellas,
and vegetables dancing in the rain,
this book gently reminds us-
sometimes, joy starts where we least expect it.
