Dear Ballerina
A dream comes true for a little girl who loves tutus, pointe shoes, and dancing on tiptoe! This little dancer loves to swirl and twirl and leap. She practices new steps every day. All her efforts are rewarded when one special day, she gets to dance in a performance with her favorite ballerina.
