Description

Seventh grade is supposed to be simple for Dillon—until his dream of becoming a real dancer collides with his dad’s insistence that he focus on football. When Dillon’s freestyle crew, the Dizzee Freekz, declares dance studios off-limits, he’s pulled into a high-stakes audition plan that could prove their rules wrong—if he can keep his footing on and off the dance floor. As Dillon trains, forms unexpected alliances, and starts to question who—or what—counts as “the enemy,” the competition becomes more than a scholarship shot; it’s a journey toward belonging, identity, and creative courage. Packed with humor, heart, and breakdance energy, this kid-friendly debut by Brooks Benjamin follows Dillon as he learns to follow his own rhythm and find his people.
