«Twins on Toes: A Ballet Debut» is a children's nonfiction book by Joan Anderson, with photographs by George Ancona, in hardback (32 pages, in English).
Seventeen-year-old twins Amy and Laurel Foster study at the School of American Ballet after ten years of training. The book combines text and photographs to show the daily discipline of classical ballet: classes, rehearsals, and physical effort, along with the joys of a life devoted to dance.
It documents the spring workshop of the School of American Ballet; it was originally published in 1993 by Lodestar Books as children's and young adult nonfiction.
For young readers, especially those interested in ballet and the effort required to train as professional dancers.
Roberta Joan "Joni" Mitchell is a Canadian singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and painter. As one of the most influential singer-songwriters to emerge from the 1960s folk music circuit, Mitchell became known for her personal lyrics and unconventional compositions, which grew to incorporate elements of pop, jazz, rock, and other genres. Among her accolades are eleven Grammy Awards, and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. Rolling Stone, in 2002, named her "one of the greatest songwriters ever", and AllMusic, in a 2011 biography, stated "Joni Mitchell may stand as the most important and influential female recording artist of the late 20th century."
