Book Bite: "Pointe" by Brandy Colbert

"I've been dancing so long that ballet has become an extension of me. I can no longer stretch my legs without pointing my toes, and I'm always aware of my arms, my back, the roll of my shoulders. As I walk between classrooms, while I'm rinsing dishes, even when I'm picking out apples with Mom at the market."
-- Pointe by Brandy Colbert (2014)
