Produktbeschreibung

ABC, Look Pon Me: Dancehall Edition is the second installment in the Diamond Ice Minor children's book series, following the celebrated debut of ABC, Look At Me: Street Dance Edition. This new volume takes young readers deep into the vibrant world of dancehall culture, using the alphabet as a playful guide to movement, language, and self-expression. In this book, Diamond Ice Minor - the six-year-old genius with a love for style, creativity, and community - invites children to discover the rhythm and energy of dancehall straight from its roots. Each letter introduces a style term, dance move, or cultural concept, connecting Jamaica's rich heritage to a global stage where kids can learn, move, and shine together. From A for Attitude to Z for Zinc Fence Style, children are taught more than just letters - they are immersed in the colors, sounds, and spirit of a culture that has shaped music, fashion, and dance worldwide. Bright illustrations and engaging text bring the dances to life, while Diamond Ice Minor encourages kids to get up, move, and try each step for themselves. But ABC, Look Pon Me is more than just an alphabet book. It's a celebration of identity, representation, and cultural pride. Many children's books overlook the contributions of Caribbean culture, but this title ensures young readers - especially those from Jamaican and diaspora backgrounds - can see themselves reflected in stories of joy, rhythm, and creativity. For others, it serves as an introduction to the power of cultural exchange and respect, showing how movement connects kids across neighborhoods, cities, and nations. The book is designed for: * Early Readers (Ages 4-8): Simple text makes it easy for children to follow along. * Parents & Educators: A resource for teaching literacy, culture, and physical activity at once. * Dance Instructors & Community Leaders: A fun way to introduce dancehall into classrooms, studios, and after-school programs. Like the first book in the series, this edition includes interactive guidance, encouraging children to revisit each letter, combine moves, and create their own new dances. In doing so, they learn not only language and rhythm but also imagination, collaboration, and confidence. Key Features: * Alphabet-based introduction to dancehall culture * Engaging illustrations featuring Diamond Ice Minor * Interactive dance and movement prompts * Cultural lessons tied to literacy development * Perfect for schools, libraries, and community programs ✨ ABC, Look Pon Me: Dancehall Edition is a book for every child who loves to move, imagine, and learn through rhythm. Whether they're stepping into their first dancehall move or discovering the alphabet in a new way, Diamond Ice Minor reminds them: "Pon every block, every corner, every stage - your culture shines."
