**Perseverance (and a little help from a friend) pay off for an aspiring
young gymnast in this inspiring early reader, now available in
Spanish!
**
Ella is in awe of Jan, the star of her gymnastics class. Jan can spin
and leap on the balance beam. Can Ella? Her first attempt is a failure,
and Ella is ready to give up. But Jan is a star at friendship too, and
with her encouragement, Ella tries again--and succeeds! The adorable,
leotard-clad young gymnasts fill the pages with action, and the story
offers valuable, age-appropriate lessons in kindness, sportsmanship, and
how important it is to try, try again. Now translated into Spanish!
