Gillis, Jennifer Blizin. Ballroom Dancing for Fun! Minneapolis, MN: Compass Point, 2008. Print. Ages 8+ Ballroom Dancing for Fun is a really great history, informational, and fun book to read. This book would be very hard for young students to read because of the fact that it is sort of complex and has a lot of reading, but it is awesome knowing the different dances now. This book takes you through six ballroom dances. This, in turn leads to being more of an informal book that is able to show you the steps on what to do for each dance which is awesome. I really liked this book because I was able to relate to this book as well. It was something that I have always wanted to learn how to do and now that I know how to do it, it makes it a lot easier.
