Inspirational Dance Dream.
The Dance Futures series, is one of the most inspirational series that I have read in a long time. I found the plight of Tori and her dreams of becoming a dancer throughtout many hardships a welcome change. I do not want to ruin the story, so I will not elaborate further. Honestly though, I am 25 years old and I am still rereading the series.

A MUST READ!!
From the moment you open this book, Tori sparkles with life. Her hopes, fears and joys are so real that you are drawn into her world. Torn between her dreams of becoming a dancer and an animal rights' activist, she comes up with resourceful ways to combine both worlds. In an age of high technology, it is refreshing to see a character who uses her imagination, personal resolve and ingenuity to solve her problems. The story is told with warmth and humor and is peopled with many interesting characters, including Cody, Toni's first love. She meets him when he tosses his jacket over her in a rainstorm: "I'm still shivering, but now it's not entirely from the cold and damp. One jacket stretched over two people makes a wonderfully small tent . . . My life has suddenly turned inside out like a windblown umbrella! I struggle for something intelligent to say." Tori manages to find her voice beautifully in this intelligently written, heartfelt book. Corbett is a writer with many strings to her bow.

good choice
What a delightful read for young adults and "older adults" too. My husband and I are ballet afficinados, aninmal rights supporters and vegetarians. We applaud Ms. Corbett for her wonderful writing style and her subject content.
