Description: "Dancing in the Wings" Hardcover, Debbie Allen 2000, Signed by Illustrator Kadir Nelson (in 2005) "Sassy worries that her too-large feet, too-long legs, and even her big mouth will keep her from her dream of becoming a star ballerina. So for now she's just dancing in the wings, watching from behind the curtain, and hoping that one day it will be her turn to shimmer up on stage." Author Debbie Allen based Dancing in the Wings on her own experiences as a dancer, but her inspiration was her sixteen-year-old daughter, who is studying ballet. Debbie Allen teams up with illustrator Kadir Nelson with this spirited tale of a girl who rises up on her toes and into the spotlight.
