About this listen

Kiana has two things: a heart full of rhythm and a pair of sneakers that have seen better days. Living in the dusty attic with her wicked stepmother and the grueling "Step-Monsters," Kiana spends her days scrubbing floors and dreaming of a life where she can just dance. But when the sneaker-obsessed Prince Jaxon announces the Royal Streetwear Gala, a massive dance-off to find the kingdom’s best freestyler. Kiana knows this is her shot. There’s just one problem: she’s grounded, broke, and wearing worn-out trainers. Enter Trixie, a break-dancing Fairy God-Stylist with a magic spray can and a plan.

With a zap of neon magic, Kiana trades her rags for a fresh hoodie and the ultimate pair of shoes: The Glass High-Tops. They are sleek, indestructible, and powered by pure magic. But the magic has a battery life. Kiana has until midnight to crash the party, win the dance-off, and capture the Prince’s attention before her ride turns back into a pumpkin (well, a rotting vegetable) and her fresh kicks vanish into thin air. Can Kiana make it to the dance floor on time? And what happens when the clock strikes 12:00 and the only thing left behind is one glass sneaker? Lace up for a story about chasing your dreams, finding your footing, and proving that the perfect fit isn't about the shoe, it's about the girl wearing it.
