About this product
Product Information
A beautiful picture book for older readers about life, death, and the enduring power of love from award-winning author and storyteller Carmen Agra Deedy. Bessie and Ninny are the best of friends. Sometimes on milk-moon nights, Ninny throws buttons at Bessie's window. When Bessie peeks outside, Ninny sings: "Bessie, oh Bessie! Come dance with me! For I hate to dance alone..." Down the drainpipe Bessie slides to visit Ninny, and off they go. Most nights, they visit the grave of Ninny's grandfather, Oppa. It was Oppa who taught them three things that they will never forget: to dance, to sing, and to tell stories. Oppah's wisdom ultimately inspires a pact between the two young friends--a pact that binds them together through love and marriage, war and separation, birth and death. In this simple but extraordinary story, New York Times best-selling author Carmen Agra Deedy speaks to readers about the value of promises and the limitless power of love even in the face of death.

"Deedy lovingly lulls readers into the intimacy of the reminiscence. . . Santini's watercolors, sometimes vague, mostly dreamy, enhance the feeling of events recalled through time. . . . Use this with older readers as a fine example of what family history can be. It's like a full cloth made from the remnants of people's lives, with all the humor, pathos, and drama that's necessary for a very effective, personal sort of storytelling." --Booklist, Deedy lovingly lulls readers into the intimacy of the reminiscence...

The Last Dance is a book for anyone who wants to remember and to rejoice in the enduring powers of love." ? Children's Book Review "My young jury asked to have [The Last Dance] read to them again-and they got the point: 'Those we love are never really gone as long as their stories are told.' Debrah Santini's masterful sketches and watercolors tell as much as the text." ? Robert D.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
