Father Figures: Tina's First Dance

This beautifully illustrated story truly highlights the African Proverb "It takes a village."

With no father in the home, Tina and her mother turn to their village for assistance in

finding Tina a chaperone so she can attend her first father-daughter dance with

her classmates.



Tina's mother arranges five interviews with trusted father figures for Tina to

ultimately choose who will accompany her to the dance. Readers will delight in Tina's

heartwarming interactions with the men she interviews and her resulting decision.

This book encourages readers to ask questions, explore future career options, make

thoughtful decisions to live a rich life, and look within their own village for

father figures.
