Jewel of the Opera Garnier

By Dale Rensing

Rarely is the road to success straight-forward. In this historical novel about a young girl living in 1890's Paris, Jewel dreams of becoming a ballerina and dancing on the stage of the opera house. Undaunted by setbacks, she learns to make the most of the opportunities that come her way. "Jewel of the Opera Garnier" seeks to encourage young girls to similarly find ways to pursue their own dreams. The book traces the footsteps of a fictitious young girl's life among some of the very real events that were happening in Paris at the end of the nineteenth century. It was an exciting time, a time when social barriers collapsed as the industrial revolution gave hope of a better life for all.This book uses some early reader French terminology and provides a glossary.
