The fifth book of the award-winning and bestselling Sugar Plum
Ballerinas series by Whoopi Goldberg--now featuring brand-new
illustrations!
At the Nutcracker School of Ballet in Harlem, young dancers learn to
chassé, plié, and jeté with their Sugar Plum Sisters--but things don't
always go to plan! As the girls encounter challenges both on and off
stage, they'll need the support of their classmates to carry them
through with aplomb.
Jessica is worse than worried when she learns that the Nutcracker School
of Ballet might lose its lease! Life just wouldn't be the same without
the ballet classes she shares with her Sugar Plum sisters. Her problems
mount when she rescues an adorable stray kitty on her way home from
class. The animal shelters can't take the cat for weeks, so Jessica
hopes the cat can live at the Nutcracker School in the meantime. But the
school is already in trouble, and a cat could be just what the landlord
needs to bring down the curtain on the ballerinas-permanently.
