  Dancer, singer, actress, movie star, civil-rights activist – Josephine Baker was a phenomenon! 
  Overcoming the poverty and abuse of her childhood, Josephine grew up to become one of the biggest stars of the early twentieth century, particularly adored in her adopted country of France.

  The Dance of Resistance is a testament to Catherine Johnson's ability to weave a story that is both engaging and educational for young adults. It's a book that every teenage reader should have on their bookshelf.
