Customer Reviews

Clean, inspiring and the friendship in this book is refreshing.

The Ballerina is targeted towards 8-13 year old girls. However, I feel like it is geared more for 7-11. The friendship between the 3 girls in this book is inspiring. They are always helping and lifting each other up. This is a great book about a girl who has a passion for dancing and works hard to achieve her goals of becoming better. In todays world, I feel like we need more clean inspiring books like this for our children. Dreaming, working hard, practicing, friendship, helping others, leadership are just a few character emphasis in this book. This book is a great read for any child; highly recommended.
