The Magic in Changing Your Stars by Leah Henderson

5.0

An entertaining read about Ailey who loves to dance and rap, yet freezes with stage fright. This story twists when he discovers Grampa had a dream to tap dance but fear stopped him from trying. In his Gramps' tap dancing shoes, Ailey time-travels back to Harlem in 1939 and changes his grandfather's destiny. Henderson had fun re-purposing the names of famous Blacks throughout the book, and it was fun recognizing them.
