The Dancing Dog

The Dancing Dog can do lots of dances – but can he do all of them? Follow the Dancing Dog as he dances his way through a selection of dance styles, and shows that he doesn't always get the moves right. Beautifully illustrated by Pat Murray, this poem was written by ten-year-old Collins Big Cat Competition winner Jasmin Glynne.
