Dancing in the Storm is an authentically written middle grade story about a young girl named Kate who is passionate about gymnastics until a rare genetic disease interrupts her life and changes almost everything. 

When Kate is injured and she can no longer hide from her parents just how significantly it is impacting her, she is diagnosed with Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva  which is incredibly rare. The story follows her diagnosis and Kate's search for community in her isolating condition. 

This book is a quick read with emotional impact and accurate facts about FOP. One of the authors has FOP and the sincere care that went into writing is evident throughout. I think this book is great for young and old(er) alike.
