A young boy who loves the Brazilian martial art of capoeira drums up his courage for a moving-up ceremony in this vibrant and inspiring book about never losing one's inner spirit.

Tchik.
Tchik.
Tchik-Tchik-BOOM!

Lucas loves capoeira, the Brazilian martial art that combines music, dance, and acrobatics. He's been practicing his moves all week for his batizado--his moving-up ceremony--where he'll get his capoeira nickname.

But today, Lucas has...the nerves! Scared he'll lose his ginga--his courage and rhythm--in the capoeira circle, Lucas plays his trusty tamborim for comfort. Then he remembers his Papai's powerful words: your ginga lives inside of you. With a little help from his community, Lucas discovers that his courage is never too far away.
