A dizzying array of graphics, varied typefaces, and black-and-white photos compete in this energetic biography of tap dancing star Savion Glover. The main text, printed in small, hard-to-read type, alternates between Weber's discussion of Glover's rise from student to star and Glover's own first-person account of what tap means to him and how he passes on that heritage to the next generation.
