Editorial Reviews
Review
“A natural fit for kids. Irrepressibly bouncy with slingshotting verses and a shout-worthy chorus”―Booklist
““full-bleed double-page spreads are appropriately kinetic and playful... ‘Slip on your dancin’ shoes,’ indeed.”―Kirkus Reviews
“Loggins invites readers to ‘slip on their dancin’ shoes’ and join a rowdy cast of animals who show off several dancing styles....a fun way for parents and grandparents to ‘cut footloose’ with a new generation.”―Publishers Weekly
"Loggins’ 1985 hit Footloose is the inspiration for this fanciful tale. Night is falling on a city zoo, so it’s time to cut loose and put on your dancin’ shoes. Animals don fringed vests, top hats, or tutus and get busy. The colorful, canted, chirpy illustrations are busy and undulating. Be sure to play the included CD until it (or you) wears out."―BookLinks Magazine

He's had smash hits on Hollywood's favorite soundtracks, rocked worldwide stages, and found his way into children's hearts while bringing his soulful, beautiful voice to platinum albums in a stunning variety of genres. His gift for crafting deeply emotional music is unparalleled, and it's been a part of his life as long as he can remember. Although Loggins has 12 platinum albums, a pair of Grammys, and hits on almost all the Billboard charts under his belt, he's far from done. With more Blue Sky Riders (his newest project) tunes in the works, he's still looking forward to what's next. "I've been lucky that I love what I do and I get to keep doing it," he says. Loggins has a newsletter and is active on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook with many thousands of followers.

His work has been published in children's magazines, his illustrations have been used on a wide variety of products and his characters have appeared on hundreds of greeting cards. Bowers and his wife live in central Ohio. They are the parents of four grown children and are proud grandparents.

- Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2016One thing I miss a lot after retiring as an elementary school principal is reading children's literature. Children in all grade levels K-5 used to stop by my office to loan me one of their favorite books to read. My goal was to read 100 books each school year. Our library-media specialist would post each title as I read them out by the library. I bought Kenny's book because I've been a fan for over 40 years and would buy anything he puts out. This book doesn't disappoint. Kenny's revised lyrics are fun and engaging, just reading them makes you want to sing. Bowers illustrations far exceed his goal to capture the energy of those lyrics, the book practically dances out of your hands. The colors are vibrant and the facial expressions on each animal on every page are animated and awesomely silly (check out Mr. Moon on several of the pages and on the CD).
I highly recommend all Kindergarten teachers and Librarians put this on their shelves. What a great number for music teachers to include in their spring concerts. Oh ya, PE teachers, use the CD for a great way to warm up the young ones at the beginning of class. #Footloose4kids

- Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2016Kenny Loggins has AGAIN provided an outstanding creation of fascinating children's literature in his newly released book "Footloose." In addition, his CD, ( given a slightly altered lyric change special for the book, will make both adults and children, "tweens" and over " tweens") JUST DANCE! Clearly this book, is meant to be enjoyed as/for/within a community of readers; for all to become engaged! Remember how a Full Moon Party brings much happiness, love, smiles, dancing, even cultural diversity understanding? So too in this book, within the zoo with the zookeeper, we see and feel magical as we journey through the fun night. The illustrations are fantastic! ( Thank you, Tim Bowes). So read, listen, dance, and enjoy all the words in this book with your children. I love the shoe designs, too! Yowza! Perhaps a Broadway Play version?!!! #Footloose4Kids!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2024My 2yo son heard this song and story in daycare and kept singing it so we ended up purchasing this..so glad we did! Easy to navigate dvd for the music along with the story to sing along with
- Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2016What a great book! My grandchildren loved it and loved dancing to the accompanying CD with Footloose and the new lyrics.....written just for them to go along with the book. Our grandson who is 6 loved reading the book all by himself and loved it. Sang along in the book to the parts he already knew from the original song. The illustrations are beautiful! They will even keep adults fascinated with the cute characters and clever bits. Just a wonderful "keep in a safe place so the kids don't tear the pages" book. This is one book that will be a cherished special book on our shelf. Thank you Kenny Loggins, for helping us through the many years to make special, lasting family memories.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2023Colorful pictures and fun story. I really enjoyed it.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2021This book is fun but not for my. Age group not. Interested, prob more for preschoolers and kindergarten children. It is fun though!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2016This book and CD combo are adorable! Kenny Loggins has taken an iconic song and turned it into lyrics that children will enjoy singing along & dancing to. The illustrator has done an incredible job of bringing each animal character to life and has given them a distinct personality to match both the story and the song lyrics! I bought one copy that I just gave as a gift. I was so impressed with the quality of the book that I am back ordering one for a keepsake and another for a holiday gift.
