<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"A picture book that weaves together Charlotte Nebres's life story as a young ballerina with the classic holiday tale of the Nutcracker"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>A reimagined and modern take on the holiday favorite, this picture book weaves together the classic Christmas tale of <i>The Nutcracker</i> and the true-life story of 12-year-old ballerina Charlotte Nebres, the first Black girl to play Marie in the New York City Ballet's production.</b></b> <p/>The only thing Charlotte loves as much as ballet is Christmas. So, when she gets the opportunity to play Marie in the New York City Ballet's <i>The Nutcracker</i>, she leaps at the chance. <p/>Dancing takes practice-hours of adjusting her arms and perfecting her jumps. With the help of her Trinidadian and Filipino families, encouragement from her sister, and a view of her mom and dad in the audience, Charlotte finds the strength to never give up. <p/>In this spectacular debut full of fluid, dynamic illustrations, Charlotte provides youngsters with a multicultural tale of family, dance, and holiday cheer.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Charlotte Nebres is a twelve-year-old pre-professional ballet dancer.
