Someday Dancer by Sarah Rubin

Maybe you can't do ballet in high-tops, but that don't mean you can't dance.

I know I don't look like a ballerina, not in these dirty high-tops with my scabby knees. But inside there is a ballerina leaping to get out, leaping so hard that sometimes I think she'll bruise my heart.

I want to read this book. It is unusual for a book to use a name like Martha Graham's for the teacher. Meaning, usually they'd just make up a character. I find this intriguing....

Next time you visit, you may borrow the book. :)

Guess whose on that list?
