The Strength of Ballerinas
Nancy Lorenz
All Kendra wants to do is dance for the Manhattan Dance Company. So when her family’s forced to move to California, her dreams of auditioning are shattered. Still determined to dance, Kendra faces social isolation and family pressures in her new home. But when she’s diagnosed with a debilitating illness, Kendra must decide which dreams are worth fighting for.
Hello Nancy,
My daughter is reading your book The Strength of Ballerinas and she needs to have the word count to receive reading credit at her school. Would you happen to know the word count for your book?
My daughter is a fellow ballerina and is really enjoying your book.
Thank you!
Ena
Ena,
I am so glad that your daughter is reading my book. Part of your message was cut off. You said that your “daughter needs to have….” I am not sure what the rest was, but hope you will write back I also hope that she is enjoying it.
I have a second book out as well now called, “American Ballerina,” which continues the story of “The Strength of Ballerinas,” but also is a stand-alone book.
It always make me happy to know that someone is reading my story. Come visit again!
Ena,
I found the rest of your message. The word count for the book was about 70,000 words. I hope that your daughter enjoys her ballet, as much as I do!
