FIREBIRD
Misty Copeland Christopher Myers
American Ballet Theatre soloist Misty Copeland tells the inspiring story of a budding ballet star.
In her debut picture book, Misty Copeland shows a young girl whose confidence is fragile how she can reach the same heights Misty has reached through hard work and dedication, so she too can become a Firebird.
Lyrical and affecting text, paired with bold, striking illustrations that are some of Calde- cott Honoree Christopher Myers’ best work, makes Firebird perfect for aspiring ballerinas everywhere.
Misty Copeland didn’t take up ballet until age thir- teen, but by age seventeen she was a professional. She was appointed ABT soloist at age twenty-four, their first African American soloist in two decades.
Christopher Myers is the author and illustrator of Caldecott Honoree Harlem and Coretta Scott King Award Honorees Black Cat and H.O.R.S.E.
