Bharatanatyam in ballet shoes  Cover Image Book Book

Bharatanatyam in ballet shoes / Mahak Jain ; pictures by Anu Chouhan.

Jain, Mahak. (Author). Chouhan, Anu. (Added Author).

Summary:

A girl explores her love of dancing and her cultural identity in a lively picture book with echoes of the real-life collaboration between Bharatanatyam icon Rukmini Devi Arundale and ballerina Anna Pavlova. Paro comes from a dancing family. At home, she dances Bharatanatyam with her mom, and now she's excited to learn ballet. But what if she can't dance like the other kids in her class? Ballerinas move like fairies, while Bharatanatyam dancers seem like queens. Paro can't be both...can she? Anu Chouhan's vibrant, energetic illustrations emphasize themes of creative flexibility and navigating the intersections of different cultural identities.
