Description
For fans of the classic novel Ballet Shoes, a coming-of-age dance story reimagined for a new generation.
As she begins 6th grade, Lauren Lightfoot wants nothing more than to get her first pair of pointe shoes, enjoy her love for ballet, and spend time with her friends. Lauren and her friends Bryan and Serena are challenged to define themselves both on stage and in the world when they audition for the Pacific Northwest Ballet School and compete for roles in the spring recital.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"This is the ballet book I wish I could have read as a young ballet student." —Megan Fairchild, principal dancer with New York City Ballet and author of The Ballerina Mindset
"Lauren in the Limelight centers around three young adolescents captivated by ballet's mysterious, magical lure, but this book is about so much more than dance. The characters' relationship and fascination with ballet is a prism through which we—and they—begin to discover and understand the complexities of self-identity, autonomy, and morality and that adults have just as many internal conflicts as kids.” —Gavin Larsen, author of Being a Ballerina and former principal with Oregon Ballet Theatre
“I so wish that Lauren in the Limelight had been in my local library when I was a tween-ager... I would have loved loved loved to imagine myself Lauren then and I know that tweens—ballet fans or not—are going to love it now.” —Nancy Pearl, author of the Book Lust series and George & Lizzie: A Novel
