Part of the Blast Back series, which includes other books about different time periods in history.
Another great chapter book from Rebel Girls! Text by Corinne Purtill.
Alicia was born in 1920 in an island nation in the Caribbean, went to regular school and took ballet lessons. She loved ballet and even went to study with a famous ballet! She became world famous for her skill. Then she became nearly blind! And still she went on tour. She determined to do it, and she did! She even founded the Cuban National Ballet and lived until 2019!
This fictionalized biography is quite realistic and encouraging to anyone facing difficulties in doing what matters to them.
The illustrations by Josefina Preumayr are simple, delightful, imaginative, and colorful.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, but especially to a school or your public library!
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Rebel Girls via NetGalley. Thank you!… (más)
