FROM THE PUBLISHER

"I hope you never lose your sense of wonder.
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean.
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance.
And when you get the chance to sit it out or dance ---
I hope you dance."

With messages as simple as these, Mark D. Sanders and Tia Sillers have written this year￯﾿ﾽs most memorable song --- "I Hope You Dance" --- recorded by Lee Ann Womack.

"I Hope You Dance," winner of the 2000 Single and Song of the Year awards at the 2000 CMA awards, in addition to being atop the charts for six weeks, is now the subject of a book written by songwriters Sanders and Sillers with an introduction by the recording artist, Lee Ann Womack.

I Hope You Dance takes these thought provoking lyrics that have touched the hearts and imaginations of people of all ages, the whole world over, and expands on their ideas of courage, hope, faith, love, and most importantly just getting out and trying.

Filled with beautiful, full-color illustrations by Nashville-based Grammy Award winning Jackson Design, and containing a special acoustic version of "I Hope You Dance" recorded by Lee Ann Womack just for this project, I Hope You Dance is a wonderful way to tell someone you care about that you hope they jump in and experience all life has to offer.

As Lee Ann Womack says in the introduction of this book about the song she made a hit across the globe, If my children understand the meanings of these lyrics when they are grown, then I have done my job as a mother.
