Review: Up to This Pointe

Up to This Pointe by Jennifer Longo
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book may be the one to break my streak of "meh" books this year. So good.

I used to love ballet books and this one gave me all those same feelings as before. Harper's (not named after the author) journey of personal growth and actual journey to/in/during Antarctica's Winter Over are interposed with the story of how she got there from San Francisco. I will be buying this book for the high school. I am fascinated with the story of the South Pole and have studied a bit of Shackleton's journey so that also helped.
