About

It's 1859, and Lani, a 13-year-old Yoruba girl, is snatched away from her village in Africa by marauding men, before she completes an important custom in her village. She is taken to the New World and must learn to speak English and while fighting to stay alive. She must grow into being a woman in America while not forgetting inspiring African customs. When forced with a choice to warn the master or let the horrible place burn, which will she choose? How will she be rewarded for her choice?

"Dancing in the White Sand" is a story of pain, suffering, and eventually, survival. A young girl is taken from her family and brought to a new place halfway across the world. There she must learn to survive, love, and dream with the help of a new remarkable family.
