It's hard enough when her ballet-crazy mother moves the family to Harlem, but when Al is chosen to star in the Nutcracker School of Ballet's big recital, she'll have to contend with her terrible dancing and a rotten case of stage fright! Can her new classmates help her find her inner Sugar Plum Fairy?<br><i>Toeshoe Trouble</i>Brenda Black prides herself on her logical and orderly mind. She studies anatomy books and idolizes Leonardo da Vinci. Things go haywire, though, when her spoiled cousin Tiffany comes to visit. Sick and tired of Tiffany's bragging, Brenda snaps and says she owns an autographed pair of famous toe shoes. It's a ballet slipper-y slope as the lie gets out of hand, and she'll need her Sugar Plum Sisters to help get her back <i>en pointe</i>!<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>PRAISE FOR PLUM FANTASTIC</b> <p/>"Full of wit and determination."--<b><i><i>School Library Journal</i></b></i><br><br><b>PRAISE FOR PLUM FANTASTIC</b> <p/>An NAACP Award Nominee<br><br><b>PRAISE FOR PLUM FANTASTIC</b> <p/>"A positive message of the power of friendship [makes] this one a keeper."--<b><i><i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b></i><br><br><b>PRAISE FOR PLUM FANTASTIC</b> <p/>"Warm, funny and tender."--<b><i><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b></i><br><br><b>PRAISE FOR TOESHOE TROUBLE</b> <p/>"Fast paced and entertaining . . . this book is sure to take center stage on young readers' lists."--<b><i><i>School Library Journal</i></b></i><br><br><b>PRAISE FOR TOESHOE TROUBLE</b> <p/>An NAACP Award Nominee<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Whoopi Goldberg</b> is the author of the Sugar Plum Ballerinas books.
