Description

Who says ballet is just for swans? A flamingo is tickled pink when she befriends a ballerina in this funny, heartwarming story about dance and determination. When Fifi crash-lands in a pond near a ballet school, she mistakes the ballerinas balancing on one leg for fellow flamingos. She longs to be a dancer, too, but the mean swans who rule the pond say she's not graceful enough. . . But when Fifi befriends Darcy, 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 the ballet school's show give Fifi a chance to show the swans that flamingos CAN dance? And can she help her new friend Darcy to overcome her stage fright?
