                    [Summary] => When was the last time you laughed at the ballet? Most probably never, because when you go to the ballet you experience things other than bursting into giggles. You swoon at the sight of 24 pretty ballerinas dressed in white tutus moving in unison across the stage like a flock of swans. You marvel at the gravity-defying leaps and jumps of the premier danseur. You lose count as the prima ballerina executes her bravura fouettés. But to chuckle and double up in laughter? Never.

                    [Summary] => My favorite book sits on the shelves of the children’s section – the most magical place in any bookstore, where wizards can be found beside farm children, and princesses beside pig-keepers; where dreams float yet reality lives.   Its stark red and black cover stands out on the shelf, somber yet strong. A young girl’s face stares out from it, wistful, beside a gold necklace that just slightly glints in the light.  


I am one of those people who took quite some time before they grew up. And this is the book which patiently waited for me as I did.
