Every sport she tries, she fails at, gloriously. Her best friend, Chloe, goes to the same middle school she moves to and they share classes and make new friends together, friends who encourage Ellie to be true to herself and dance. From her first crush to getting in trouble for hitting a mean girl, to sneaking into ballet lessons, the reader wants Ellie be her true funny, quirky yet graceful self.
The illustrations are perfect for this story, the colors are bright but not overpowering, and the style is befitting the story of a young girl and her family, even the visual elements that depict Ellie’s quirkiness and emotions are just right.
This book was originally written in Italian, but the theme of trying to find your gifts is universal. It’s a nice way to share translated books with younger readers. ( )
