Description: Everyone knows what a ballerina should look like ... right? In this laugh–out–loud novel, reminiscent of The Earth, My Butt and Other Big Round Things, a spunky and talented ballerina with decidedly unballerina–like proportions knocks the dance world on its tutu. This modern–day ballerina's story fulfills teen girls' insatiable appetite for funny, accessible books starring heroines they can relate to.
