Gr 1-3-An autobiography that's sure to encourage young balletomanes. White, a ballerina with the New York City Ballet, describes how her dream of being a dancer came true. Singularly determined at an early age, she overcame vision problems and stage fright to become a successful dancer, as well as a wife, mother, and teacher. Simply told, her life story can be read easily by the beginning chapter-book crowd, and should inspire them to pursue their own personal aspirations. The soft, pastel-toned illustrations are augmented by a few full-color photos of White en pointe. As a final touch, instructions on how to sew ribbons on toe shoes and how to make a ballerina-bun hairdo are accompanied by step-by-step illustrations. Sure to evoke sighs of envy and admiration, and perhaps a rash of ballerina buns in the early elementary set.-Patricia Manning, formerly at Eastchester Public Library, NY
