The All-American Jump and Jive Jig

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Amanda Haley. "All across the country, there are dances children do. / Different kinds in different towns, and you can learn them, too!" Peppy rhymes introduce readers to the Brooklyn Boogie, the Miami Mambo, and other dances (instructions provided). The text cumulatively is wearying, but the premise itself is diverting, as are the illustrations of the moving-and-grooving kids.
