Big! World Records in the Streets! Plus Tap Dancing Galore! goes backstage with dancer Mary Beth Obermeyer as she shows what it's like to solo with Garrison Keillor, Christopher Plummer and Gregory Hines. She also brings dancing to the streets for a half dozen world records--including the World's Largest Marching Band (2,512;) the six-mile Bucket Brigade on Lake Street; the World's Longest Chorus Line, all in Minneapolis; and Leapfrogging in Frogtown; the Mass Break Dance (7,000+) and the one that changed her life, the first Minnesota Festival of the Book, all in St. Paul. And you won't want to miss any of those Out-Takes!

An organizer extraordinaire, Beth takes you to BIG, fun filled, community celebrations many of which are in the Guinness Book of World Records. She shares with you the many interesting and some even famous people she meets along the way. Her lively writing style gives you a front row seat at these events and a tiny bit of hope that even you could pull off such a celebration. And if you lived in the Minneapolis-St Paul area you would have wanted to join in! More than just show time, these events are community builders.

I enjoyed being given a behind the scenes look at what made all of these events happen. The detail and pictures made for an entertaining read. Having taken part in one of the events as a young person, it was fun to revisit the experience.
