Work Description
All my life I've heard Cinderella Stories about a nobody stepping into a starring role at a moment's notice.
I never dreamed it would happen to me.
Maggie Adams lives in a dancer's world--of strained muscles and dirty toe shoes, sacrifices and triumphs, hard work, and tough competition. In her world, her only friends are dancers...Joyce who wisely recognizes the limitation of her dancing ability,...and little Lupe, so afraid of being overweight that she refuses to eat at all. In Maggie's world, there is little time for anything but dance, as her family and her boyfriend come to learn. Her mother spoils her, her father isn't convinced of her talent, and boyfriend can't understand why he doesn't come first in her life. But Maggie--spirited, gifted and determined--will let nothing stand in her way. Before all else, Maggie Adams is a dancer.
