To Dance is the story of Siena Cherson Siegel's journey from her desire to be a ballerina at age six to her debut performance with the New York City Ballet as a young adult. Siegel was faced with being unable to compete several times, due to being flat-footed, personal issues or injuries, yet prevailed with optimism. It's an uplifting story told in whimsical watercolours by Mark Siegel.While To Dance is light-hearted, Siegel doesn't spare the brutal honesty of ballet, and how extraordinarily
