Yara is a devoted ballet dancer, but her family moves around a lot, so when she moves in and joins a local ballet school called shimmer and shine, she is able to make new friends who share her passion. The story follows yara through the journey of finding the pressures of balancing school work and her passion for ballet. It covers the diversity that comes from focusing on more than just one thing in life and the dame Audrey, with the tragic ending to her ballet career, carries a valuable lesson in being prepared for the worse, but turning perspective to a more positive experience. The illustrations are perfectly placed and are able to capture the fun and beauty of ballet. When yara suggests doing a show and doing the sleeping beauty version, I found myself inspired to watch the dance and like indu, using osmosis as a way to perform the delicate moves. Overall, this is a story filled with great guidance and even has a recipe to make Mrs madani mattentaart, which is great interaction.
