Misty Copeland: Power and Grace by Richard Corman

     I've never had a book that's perfect for my coffee table before, not until now.  Most folks have books of European countries or photos of fantastic dinners and hors d' oeuvres. Me, I now have the lovely Misty Copeland.

     This young lady, used to play basketball and dance at the Boys and Girls Club- having fun just being a kid.  But her teacher saw something special in her and managed to get her a scholarship.  Four years later, she was the first African-American female principal dance for the American Ballet Theatre.

     Richard Corman's book, Misty Copeland: Power and Grace shows the magic of the blessings she was given and the opportunity to become what many "little brown girls" only dream of!  The photos show litheness, symmetry, and inventiveness.  She's not only beautiful but what she does with her body and those magical feet is beyond dance.

     This more of a picture book than a novella or novel, but it's one that your table will crave!  I'm so happy to have received such a lovely book!  Check it out!
