Little Yura Loves to Dance

BOOK FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS

Little Yura loves to have fun and wants to be friends with everyone! His classmates at school are not always nice, but one day his friend gives a piece of advice... "Dance, it's very good for you!" Little Yura learned that this was true, and it turned out, he loved dancing, too!

A portion of the proceeds from this book benefit this nonprofit foundation.
