5.0 out of 5 stars
the Drina series is the most beautiful collection of novels,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ballet for Drina (Paperback)
My Grandmother sent me the first two drina books when I was about eleven and over the years I've managed to collect every one of them. I must have read them a million times because they really are the best books ever. When you read about Drina you absolutely love her. These books made me cry and I think anyone who has any interest in ballet has to read them. I think even if you didn't love ballet you would after reading these. The best thing about them is their passion and character development. I wish I could meet Drina. Anyway, I'm going to carry these books with me forever because they are the best!

the beloved Drina series,
By
This review is from: Ballet for Drina (Paperback)
This is the first in the Drina series, and the book introduces us to young Andrina Adamo, or Drina Adams. We learn that ballet is her passion, even though her grandparents, who she lives with, aren't too keen on the idea of her growing to be a ballerina. This will be a recurring theme in the 10 books to follow. Drina is one of the most lifelike charecters I've ever read about, and Ms. Estoril writes such a compelling story about her that I have considered her books my favorites for 10 years. For anyone who has ever wanted to dance, I recommend these books highly.

This was the best book I've ever read!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ballet for Drina (Paperback)
Ballet for Drina by Jean Estoril is about a young girl named Andrina Adamo who lives with her grandparents. Drina feels that she was put on this earth for one reason; to dance. However, her grandmother strongly disapproves of it for a mysterious reason left unknown to Drina. However, Drina is convinced and keeps trying to get her grandparents to get her lessons. This book was well written. The references to actual living dancers such as Elizabeth Ivory, really completes the story. When I read this book it feels like I'm living it because of the realistic descriptions, such as of the Selswick School, and Drina's feelings towards dancing. I strongly recommend this book to any ballet lover.
