Prima ballerina, a book of ballet stories.
Author: Hodgson, Miriam Published: The dream-like, entrancing world of ballet is perfectly captured in all its aspects in these newly commissioned stories by top authors. The fantasy of a little girl is realised in a first ballet lesson in Marjorie Darke's charming story, while Jamila Gavin shows that it is not only girls who want to dance. Jean Richardson and Susan Hampshire show the hard work, frustration, and pain of ballet as well as the joy of being able to dance. Other authors include Vivien Alcock, Adele Geras, Bel Mooney, and Jean Ure. |
