I couldn't believe that Whoopi Goldberg would write a book about ballet. Wow. She did. and it's really interesting. She did write the book with author Deborah Underwood, but it's still a fun book, and first in a series.
It is well written about a girl who would rather be a speed skater than a ballet dancer and her move to Harlem in NYC. It's a friendship book, a problem-solving book, and an all around good book. The girls happen to be black, but it is secondary to the plot. There is no preachiness, just good writing and creative ending. I am reserving the next one.
