ballet dance

Alexandrea does not want to be a beautiful ballerina and she definitely does not want to move. Her ballet crazed mother moves the family to Harlem and enrolls Al in the Nutcracker School of Ballet. Al does not think she is a good dancer and she has stage fright! She needs lots of help from her friends to find her inner Sugar Plum Fairy.

As she takes ballet lessons and participates in a school play, a timid fourth-grader confronts her fears and learns a lesson about friendship.

Heather, a young ballerina, experiences the off-stage and on-stage excitement of opening night at the ballet.
