One windy day, a magazine blew down the road. I reached out & caught it. A pretty picture of a woman was on the front cover of the magazine. She wore a short pink dress that stuck out around her in a circle. She looked very happy. At the age of three, Michaela De Prince found a photo of a ballerina that changed her life. She was living in an orphanage in Sierra Leone at the time, but was soon adopted by a family & brought to America. Michaela never forgot the photo of the dancer she once saw, & decided to make her dream of becoming a ballerina come true.
