Oh, to be a ballerina! It's a challenge for any little girl, but even more so if you happen to be a vampire like Vampirina. First of all, you have to find a class that meets at night. Then you have to figure out how to perfect your form when you can't see yourself in the mirror. And then there's wearing pink (not the most flattering of colors if you happen to be undead) and that nagging urge to take a little nip out of the other dancers. And worse of all: STAGE FRIGHT!!!
"This story of perseverance and determination will appeal to young dancers." -- School Library Journal

"Pace's funny, matter-of-fact advice ... works in harmony with Pham's expressive watercolor pen-and-ink artwork ... kids who aren't into frilly will welcome this departure from typical ballerina books." -- Booklist
