Perfectionistic Jerzey Mae desperately wants to be a ballet dancer. But she's frustrated by her own lack of talent--and by her friends' jokes about her terrible dancing. Things get even worse when her little brother Mason attends her ballet class, totally embarrassing Jerzey in front of her prima ballerina idol, Miss Camilla Freeman. When Jerzey learns that Miss Camilla will be attending their recital, she's determined not to make a fool of herself again. But her efforts to learn her dance are continually thwarted--until she finds help in a very unexpected place.
my daughter is ten she will be 11 soon.this is the 3rd book in the series and we think this is going to be her last, not because she doesn't like it but she's getting to old for the characters.these books are very well written and have story line the kids can relate to.my daughter looked sad when she said she thinks she's getting to old for it. Whoopi Goldberg only puts these out once or twice a year.so she has a while before the next comes out.we love these books.

Whoopy for Whoopie! Another winner! This series is so cute! Eack book focuses on one member in a tightly knit group of young girls who attend the same ballet school. This book's focus is Jerzey Mae, one of the triplets. I knew it was gonna be a fun book when her parents said Jerzey Mae's little brother (Mason) would have to go to ballet school with the triplets because they (their parents) had to work. There's alway a problem to solve, a little lesson in each book. This one shows help can come from the least expected places. I highly recommend this book as well as the others in the series. I can't wait for the next one!! P.S. The kids loved it, too!
