Life in Motion: An Unlikely Ballerina by Misty Copeland

How high can you leap?
 
Misty Copeland’s memoir is as full of as much grace as she has on the stage.  My friend, Brett, and I discuss her surprising journey to becoming a principal dancer for the prestigious American Ballet Theatre. Her story is packed with  adversity, compassion, but most important of all, hope. She’s an inspiration for dancers (and non-dancers) of all ages!
