The Twirly Wiggly Dance

Farrah Riaz
5.00/5 (13 ratings)
Five-year-old Intisar is very excited to be invited to her auntie's wedding and even better, she's been asked to take part in a big group dance for the Walima on the final day of the celebrations. But the dance is complicated and Intisar is worried she'll ever be able to learn it. With a little help from her family, she finds her own style and recognises that joining in is the most important part of the fun!


The Twirly Wiggly Dance is a story about courage and creativity, about feeling confident enough to be yourself in whatever ways you truly enjoy, and managing feelings of anxiety. It tells a story of universal worries, learnings, and joys, while celebrating the South Asian diaspora and non-traditional families.



The perfect gift for special family celebrations

Wonderful conversation starter for teachers and librarians to explore South Asian cultural identity and Muslim wedding traditions. Also a wonderful resource for exploring themes of courage, creativity, confidence, and doing things your own way.

Would suit fans of Mommy's Khimar by Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow and Ebony Glenn, Julian at the Wedding by Jessica Love, and The Proudest Blue by Ibtihaj Muhammad, S.K. Ali, and Hatem Aly.
