For a girl who's grown used to receiving applause for her dance prowess and flexibility, adjusting to a prosthetic leg is painful and humbling. But Veda refuses to let her disability rob her of her dreams, and she starts all over again, taking beginner classes with the youngest dancers. Then Veda meets Govinda, a young man who approaches dance as a spiritual pursuit. As their relationship deepens, Veda reconnects with the world around her, and begins to discover who she is and what dance truly means to her.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Padma Venkatraman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0147514401\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780147514400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nancy Paulsen Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/12\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.40w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.8\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e171065 \/ Time to Dance\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Padma Venkatraman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44050269143295,"sku":"9780147514400","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5b7b952d-de70-4bf1-bf9a-1ff8e3918bfc.jpg?v=1685006233","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-time-to-dance-padma-venkatraman-9780147514400","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
