Author Jodi Glaser-Taub and illustrator Jerry Glaser invite children to step into the world of dance with Me and Marta and the Magic Shoes, a heartwarming new picture book for children ages 3-8. Drawn from Jodi's own experience in a Sunday salsa dance class, the story follows a young dancer and her friend Marta, as they discover that confidence and kindness are the real magic behind each step.

Through playful storytelling and vibrant illustrations, Me and Marta and the Magic Shoes encourages children to put on their own dancing shoes and embrace the joy of movement and self-expression. This uplifting book is a celebration of underdogs everywhere.

To be published on April 29 in honor of National Dance Day, Me and Marta and the Magic Shoes is perfect for children, families, classrooms, and dance studios looking to inspire the next generation of dreamers and performers.

Me and Marta and the Magic Shoes is a heartwarming story about building confidence in children who may feel different or less gifted than others. Through the main character's journey, Jodi gently reminds young readers that everyone deserves to feel included. A wonderful read for kids who may be shy or who sometimes struggle to find their place.

- Talia Castro-Pozo, Internationally Renowned Salsa Dancer and Choreographer
