She is a shortstop, not a ballerina. At least, that is what one baseball-loving girl thinks when her mother signs her up for ballet lessons. A tutu feels like the last thing she wants anywhere near her reputation, especially if her teammates find out.
But the barre and the baseball diamond may have more in common than she expects. This funny early reader follows a sporty, determined main character as she faces embarrassment, new expectations, and the challenge of trying something outside her comfort zone. With full-color illustrations and an energetic story, Baseball Ballerina is a lively choice for readers who enjoy sports, dance, and characters who discover they do not have to fit into just one box.
