Publisher's Summary
In her debut book, Misty Copeland tells the story of a young girl - an every girl - whose confidence is fragile and who is questioning her own ability to reach the heights that Misty has reached. Misty encourages this young girl's faith in herself and shows her exactly how, through hard work and dedication, she, too, can become Firebird.
Lyrical and affecting text makes Firebird perfect for aspiring ballerinas everywhere.
