Reach for this book when you notice your adolescent daughter becoming increasingly perfectionistic, particularly regarding her body image or a high-pressure hobby like dance. It is an essential choice for families navigating the 'invisible' middle child syndrome or those struggling with the ripple effects of a sibling's rebellion and a parent's emotional absence. Thirteen year old Delia is a gifted ballerina who uses the discipline of dance to cope with her motherless household and her sister Pearl's erratic behavior. As Delia spirals into an obsession with weight and control, the story explores the heavy burden of trying to be the 'good child' in a fractured family. It is a poignant, realistic look at eating disorders and sisterhood for mature middle schoolers, offering a mirror for those who feel they must be perfect to be loved.
