"Spare, poetic words sit as lightly as snowflakes." Wall Street Journal
"An enchanting glimpse of a dancer whose name has come to be synonymous with her most famous role." School Library Journal, starred review
One night, young Anna's mother takes her to the ballet, and everything is changed. So begins the journey of a girl who will one day grow up to be the most famous prima ballerina of all time, inspiring legions of dancers after her: the brave, the generous, the transcendently gifted Anna Pavlova.
