The Legend of the Dancing Trees

The Legend of The Dancing Trees is the story of Kalil Taylor, a young man growing up in 1960’s Mississippi. The story follows Kalil’s special, or should we say “magical” relationship with his grandfather, and how that relationship leads him to the discovery of an old African-American legend. The story of four slave women that turned themselves into trees to escape slavery fuels Kalil’s desire to learn more. The legend says the women turn themselves back to human form and dance by the light of the full moon. In search of the truth Kalil is taken on a magical journey. He discovers much more than he bargained for.
