From her neighborhood concerts as a child to her work in the chorus line of the Whitman Sisters’ vaudeville show, to tap dancing with Bill Bojangles Robinson, to performing in the movies, Ms. LeGon was a pioneer for black women throughout the twentieth century.”

    "The third book of what will hopefully be many more! Dr. Karen Campbell Kuebler is back on the scene with a third glorious story; this time about Jeni LeGon in LeGon Suits Up! Ms. LeGon was not only a pioneer for dancers, but for aspiring black women! Having her own style, tap dancing in a suit, women could be inspired to be themselves, and not conform to the expectations of the world, but listen to their hearts, and find their own individuality…Hallelujah! As with the last two books by the author, this is just as magical. The illustrations, the rhyming, the backstory to be shared with whomever opens the cover, and begins the journey….let it be YOU! Brava, Dr. Karen Campbell Kuebler…please continue to share these beautiful journeys with your readers, and keep dancing!" - A. McCusker
