Description
Ballet, dance, adventure, mystery, magic, fantasy and a touch of first-love romance combine in this spellbinding series for preteens, tweens and teens that promises to have these young readers coming back for more!
If you think this is your regular ballet – or urban fantasy book – think again!
13-year-old Gemma James is just your average girl with anything-but-average dreams of being a professional ballet dancer. She attends the prestigious SA Ballet Academy – an eerie old ballet school bursting with secrets…and where nothing is quite what it seems.
Now the Grade 7s at the academy are putting on a performance of the enchanting ballet Giselle, and Gemma is determined to get a lead role.
But the discovery of a 100-year-old mystery in the depths of the old academy building one moonlit night, stiff competition from the other teen dancers, and the constant harassment of Super Snob and star performer, Aimee Atherton, all threaten to derail Gemma’s chances.
Plus cute new boy Ethan Blake has just transferred to the academy from a top London ballet school, and he’s complicating things even further.
Readers will fall in love with sassy Gemma and her alluring sense of adventure, as well as best friends Marley Moon and Dineo as they get to grips with life in this unusual ballet school with its enchanting setting and larger-than-life characters.
Dance with your Heart is the first book in the delightful SA Ballet Academy series of fantasy dance and ballet books for girls.
