I loved this graphic novel. I think it would be an excellent way to get non-motivated readers involved in reading. Some students think books such as this one are not allowed into the classroom. I think some teachers are reluctant to put graphic novels in their classroom because they think these are all the students will read. I loved how emotional this book was. It made me feel as though I was right there experiencing the feelings and emotions of the dancer. I can see how little girls would see how their dreams can become reality through this book.
I think reading this to students and then allowing them an opportunity to write their own short graphic novel would be a great way for students to have an outlet to show emotion in their writing.
