Summary

"Coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of a Catskill Mountains resort during the summer of 1963. Drawn to the staff quarters by the sound of stirring music, vacationing 17-year-old Baby meets rebellious Johnny, the hotel dance instructor, who is as experienced as Baby is naïve. Baby becomes Johnny's pupil in dance--and in love"--Container
