Song and Dance Man is a children's picture book written by Karen Ackerman and illustrated by Stephen Gammell.

Gammell won the 1989 Caldecott Medal for his illustrations, pencil drawings using full colors.

He tells stories of when he was a vaudeville song and dance man, when people did not sit in front of the television for hours.

He leads the children to the attic, and finds his old bowler hat, gold-tipped cane, and tap shoes.

He performs, telling jokes, dancing and singing, making the children laugh.
