To Dance: A Ballerina's Graphic Novel
By Siena Cherson Siegel
I was really disappointed with this book... It didn't really make sense and I found myself not being able to grasp the plot line. The illustrations were ok, but they didn't blow me away. Over all, I would give this book a 1 star just because I did not enjoy reading it...!
A Time to Dance
By Padma Venkatraman
A Time to Dance by Padma Venkatraman is a stunning book about a girl's struggle to regain confidence after an accident. Veda has always lived and breathed classical Indian Bharatanatyam dancing, so when an accident leaves her with a below the knee amputation, her dreams of becoming a dance prodigy shatter! While some would give up on their dreams, Veda relies on fierce determination as she searches for what dance really means to her...! This book is about spiritual dance, the power of art, and the resiliency and courage of a girl who just wants to live and redefine her dreams. I would definitely recommend this book to lovers of dance, inspiration and strong girls!

Smithers2000
This is one of my favorite books ever. It is a wonderful story about sisterly love, facing your fears, and never giving up. Addie was always the shy one. Scared of spiders and strangers, griffins and ghosts. But it turns out that she is braver then she thinks. Meryl however, is daring and bold, funny and outgoing. She wants to go out into the world on adventures. But when Meryl becomes deathly ill with the 'grey death', Addie will do anything to save her. Gail Carson Levine's outstanding tale will captivate readers young and old.
