What nine-year-old Jennifer Allen wants most in the world is to be a ballet dancer. And, despite a discouraging debut under the tutelage of cigar-chomping Mr. Vincent, and the warning from her friend Danielle that “it’s not all glamour,” Jennifer is determined to follow her dream. Prima Ballerina Veronica Tennant’s entrancing story of a young girl’s first steps in the world of dance, enhanced by artist Rita Briansky’s delightful illustrations, has proved a continuing favourite with readers of all ages, in Canada and abroad. 1977 On Stage Please by Veronica Tennant Canadian Ballet Story Ballerina World of Dance Illustrated Young Girl Reader
