Lena’s Toes
by Becky Parry
Beautifully honest
As a mother of a daughter with some physical disabilities, I loved how this story showed Lena’s struggle with ballet initially but her ability to improve as she kept trying and didn’t give up! My daughter loved it!
Another great book about not giving up!
This resonated more with my young daughter than my son but it was still a wonderful chapter book that all enjoyed. When you fall, try try again! Literally!
Love this one!
My daughter loves ballet and so this one is motivating her to read!
Celebrate starting something new
I bought this for my daughter when she started ballet lessons. She really enjoyed it.
Great read!
This book is very good for girls. We read this book very often and they do not get tired of it.
