Ballet Academy

Reach for this book when your child is transitioning from a casual hobby to a serious commitment, or when they are feeling intimidated by the high standards of a new skill.

It provides a grounded look at how passion is sustained through hard work and repetition. Through Lucy's eyes, children learn that even the most graceful performers start with basic drills and occasional nerves.
