AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Sixteen-year-old Kat isn't sure what she wants to do in the future but she does know there's more to life than dancing. If only her parents would realise it. Kat's mother is the National Ballet Company's principal ballerina and her stepfather is an acclaimed choreographer. It's tough having celebrity parents and in the dance world this is as A-List as it gets. As a result, Kat has no choice but to attend the Academy and pretend she looks pleased about it - which couldn't be farther from the truth. Kat is naturally talented at ballet but finds her hip hop classes much more interesting. Kat's energy is infectious and her flair for mischief, legendary. She's one of those people who can convince you to do anything. The perfect complement to Tara's wide-eyed innocence, Kat stops her friend from getting too earnest with a healthy dose of realism and a naughty sense of humour. Some people are afraid of failure but Kat is afraid of success. She loves her mother but doesn't want to end up like her. Kat and her stepbrother, Ethan, are used to taking care of themselves. Their parents are proud that the kids are so independent. 'Kat wishes just once they could be like a normal family.
No one would ever guess how insecure she often feels...' (Publication summary)
