Book Review By Ashley Nobis
Kathleen the Celtic Knot by Siobhan Parkinson

A girl named Kathleen lives with her mother, father, three sisters and her brother. Kathleen is late for her school so her teacher talks to her mom. Her teacher suggests that Kathleen should take dancing lessons. The problem is that Kathleen's family can not afford to pay the price of the dancing lessons. Kathleen's dance teacher is nice because she offers a month of free dancing lessons to Kathleen.
