Wow. That is not really accurate for this book. Yes, a fourteen year old girl is enrolled in a dance academy in Toronto and hopes for a career. However, there is her finding teen porn on the computer, taking her own porn photos, her obsession with her teacher, her sexual encounter, her family's apparent lack of any ethical compass to guide her. Her family is so dysfunctional and unavailable that she is truly on her own and makes some really bad choices in this book. At the end, she does own up and the teacher she inadvertantly set up doesn't go to prison, but there is so much in there that many parents may be alarmed when they see what is in this book. Oh yeah, it leaves anorexia an open door for success in achieving a "dancer's body." Yep.
