Customer Reviews

Great young adult series

I owned the entire Satin Slippers series as a child. I loved these books. I couldn't wait for each new book to be published. I studied ballet so I was fascinated with the the characters and the stories. I highly recommend this series for young adults.

A great book and series!

As one who studied ballet for 5 years, I really enjoyed the ballet stories. There are so many ballet series that have come and gone, but most of them have been aimed at little kids. This is the only one I ever found that treated ballet as something a serious teenager would want to do.

I fell on love with Leah and the series. It was great!!

Leah and her friends make it fun to read. I found my first book in a used book store and have found three more. I hope to find more.

Why didn't anyone else do a review about this series????????

I have only read TO BE A DANCER, and unfortunately, all the books in this series is out of print. TO BE A DANCER is about Leah, a girl who wants to be a famous dancer someday. She auditions for this world-famous ballet school, and she does make it. Along the way, she makes two friends: Kay and Alexandra. She also makes an enemy: Pam. Plus, she meets James, a total hunk, who seems to like her. This book is totally radical. I REALLY want to read the other books in this series. Qian L.
