pickAn incredible true story.
FULL REVIEW: http://abookandateacup.blogspot.com/2021/01/review-taking-flight.html
pickA wonderful memoir. Georgina is relatable, open, and humorous. She held a light to a lot of the toxic and harmful culture of ballet, but also allows the beauty of dance to shine through. I found her inspirational and admired her talent and dedication, even more so with being the first Asian-American soloist for her company.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yesterday‘s Little Free Library finds for the small people in my life.
“A long hallway, or a parking lot just begged for dance”
I like how even though she stops dancing due to injuries and other circumstances, she still holds onto the part of her that is a dancer. I think this shows that you can have a passion, but it doesn‘t have to be your whole life, it can just be part of who you are.
pickPublished 2006. A young girl finds a passion for ballet. She finds inspiration from watching a traveling ballet, watching movies, and reading books. This graphic novel tells the story of her journey to becoming a ballerina. She has some challenges along the way, and stops dancing to go to college, but she knows deep down she will always be a dancer.
