If you are a dancer read this!

On my way to West Virginia flying alone I read this book it kept me going for hours. I didn't want to put it down! It has such wonderful stories in it and since I love the world of dance especially ballet(which I've been doing for 9 years.) If anyone knows where I can locate other books like this email me!

This book is a treasure trove of stories! Inspiring to the young dancer, it is also interesting to the non dancer. It compiles some of the best stories ever written about ballet
