A Dancer’s Tale


Book Reviewed by Tabitha Makumi, Enabling Support Foundation Communications and PR. 

What kind of dances are practiced in today’s schools? And how further have dancers been able to progress a career in dancing? Hopefully, schools at Enabling Support Foundation can foster talent in dance and musicals at an early age. 

Welcome to the world of Phyllis Spira a Ballerina who has been dancing since she was four. The story of her career is told from the time she started dancing in South Africa, travelled the world, then came back to her home country with nothing but pride and honour in her dancing shoes. 

Authored by Thea Nicole de Clerk, Illustrations by Samantha Cutler, Designed by Roberto Pita and Edited by Lisa- Treffry Goatley, The Dancers tales will inspire young artists in the music industry to chase their dreams. 

If anything, it might also remind educators around the world and music lovers of the renowned song, “Diamond in the sole of their shoes,” song by Paul Simon and the Black Mambazo.
