Featuring colorful illustrations, interesting facts about various jobs, and a narrative told from the first-person perspective of a child who is a friend of the main characters.

In this book, a girl named Hannah attends a dress rehearsal at a theater and learns all about the fascinating and challenging profession of a ballerina. Every day, her friend Yana trains hard to learn how to dance on her toes and perform complex movements like jetés, fouettés, arabesques, and many others.
