Play with me -- I had a bad dream -- When I grow up -- Oops -- I can do it -- I'm such a nerd -- Do they like me? -- I love you -- Thanks, mom and dad.

A book bursting with passion, hope, and gravity-defying energy. A book to make you dream. A book about youth in all its glory, captured through the lens of dance. Jordan Matter is known to millions for his 10 Minute Photo Challenge YouTube videos. Now, in one dazzling photo after another, he portrays children in ordinary and extraordinary pursuits - from sleepovers to selfies, from leaping for joy to feeling left out. The subjects include TV and Internet starts like Chloe Lukasiak, Sofie Dossi, Kalani Hilliker, and Tate McRae, as well as children famous only in their own neighborhoods. What they all share is the skill to elevate their hopes and dreams with beauty, humor, grace, and surprise. Paired with empowering words from the dancers themselves, as well as from writers and artists, the photographs convey each child's declaration that they were born to dance.
