Wenda the Wacky Wiggler is the story of a happily unique little girl who absolutely loves to dance. She loves to shake. She loves to wiggle. She loves to move. But her fellow townsfolk are a little on the gloomy side, and they don’t see the point in all the wiggling. So, they take the music away. Wenda’s not quite sure what to do:You can’t dance without music, right? Wrong! To the town’s surprise, it’s in the actual silence that Wenda realizes that her love and joy came from inside, and that her wiggle was an expression of her happiness. The cool thing is, happiness spreads quickly. It doesn’t take long before the whole town is wiggling right along with Wenda.
Wenda the Wacky Wiggler is a delightful tale that reminds each of us of our individual expressions of wisdom and love.
