Sunny

"Sunny Lancaster is a winner. Wih-winner. As the best runner in the 1600 meter, Sunny can beat anyone by, well, a mile. But for Sunny, winning is boring. Buh-boring. Truth is, Sunny doesn't like running. Never has. What Sunny really loves ... is dancing. The boom-bap-bap of dance routines beats the chick chick chick of track meets any day. Sunny loves his team, though, so he can't quit, but he also can't be on a track team and not run. And he definitely can't be on a track team and dance. But it turns out track isn't just chick chick chick. It's also whoosh whoosh ahh ... If Sunny lets loose everything he's been holding inside, will he make the best moves ever, or will it be his biggest misstep?"--.
