The Flamingo Ballerina

Who says ballet is just for swans? Fifi the flamingo is tickled pink when she befriends a ballerina in this funny, heartwarming story about dreams, dance and determination. Fifi the flamingo lives in a pond near a ballet school and loves to watch the ballerinas rehearsing through the windows. She longs to be a dancer, but the swans who share her pond tell Fifi that she's not graceful enough. . . But when Fifi befriends Gisele, one of the young ballerinas, she learns that becoming a dancer isn't just about looking good in pink. It takes lots of hard work and training! Will an outdoor performance of Swan Lake give Fifi an opportunity to show the world that flamingos CAN dance? And can she help her new friend Gisele to overcome her stage fright?
