About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling to balance a personal passion with their role within the family. It is perfect for children who feel the weight of responsibility at a young age or who feel guilty about pursuing their own dreams when things at home are complicated. Kate lives with her grandmother in New York and dreams of being a professional ballerina, but the demands of her home life and her grandmother's needs create a difficult internal tug of war. This story explores the complex transition from childhood to adolescence through the lens of sacrifice and self-discovery.
