In this book from the critically acclaimed, multimillion-copy
best-selling Little People, BIG DREAMS series, discover the true story
of ballet dancer Anna Pavlova.
Little Anna fell in love with ballet after watching a performance
with her mother. At the age of just nine years old, she auditioned for
the famous Imperial Ballet! But...she was rejected.
The set-back didn't stop Anna--she auditioned again a year later and
was accepted into the company. Although ballet was her passion, it
didn't always come easily to her, and she worked fiercely to become
the best.
After her training was complete, she performed across Russia and later
formed her own company with which she toured the world. The story of
Anna Pavlova, one of the greatest dancers to have ever lived,
teaches us that with hard work, our talents can take us wherever we
want to go.
This inspiring book features stylish and quirky illustrations and
extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with
historical photos and a detailed profile of the star's life.
