Toe-tally Fabulous is the story of twelve-year-old Jessie Garrett, a basketball-playing tomboy who one summer stumbles into ballet class and unleashes her unknown prima. But first, Jessie must trade in her sneakers for toe shoes. This all comes as a surprise to girly-girl classmate Bianca Best, who's the top student at Madame Schumann's School of Ballet. Bianca's been taking ballet for years, and even has her Juilliard application filled out! It's only when Bianca takes Jessie under her wing that new girl Jessie transforms into the school's best dancer, and Bianca's best friend. But will their new friendship be strong enough to survive auditions for the big recital? And what happens when class drama queen Margo gets in the mix and competes for the spotlight and Bianca's friendship?Reading level: ages 9 to 12
