It's dance class day and Gran will teach Kwesi and the neighbours her trophy-winning dance, the Shooby-Doo Mambo. But Gran hurts her knee before Kwesi can learn all the steps. How will he learn the special dance now?

Slowly Kwesi finds the confidence to practice the steps on his own, but dancing without Gran is not the same...

Kwesi's inventive solution delivers a heartwarming surprise. Next dance class day, he and Gran dance the new Shooby-Do Mambo.

Twirling their glittery canes in the air while seated on chairs, they wow all the neighbours
