    Synopsis

    Rachel Deering has her eyes on her toes, in becoming a world-class ballerina. As a 14-year-old, she is already one of the best dancers in the country. Just as she prepares for an audition for an opening with a prestigious dance troupe, Rachel starts having some very disturbing symptoms. After collapsing at school, she has many tests and her doctor tells her the news: She has diabetes. Now her world consists of blood tests, insulin shots, a controlled diet, and constant fear that she will have a reaction and end up unable to dance, or worse.

    January 03, 2009: Last Dance by Lurlene McDaniel is a very cute book. It is about a young ballet student named Rachel Deering who hopes to one day become a professional ballet dancer. She is very talented and is set on auditioning for a summer scholarship for The School of American Ballet. Then she discovers she has type 1 diabetes and she's not sure if she can dance anymore. This book has everything, dance, romance, and it will make you cry. It has a touching story line that makes it impossible to put down, I read it in one day! I recommend that all dancers between the ages of 12 and 15 read this sweet book. It might not be good for younger children because of it's romantic aspects and it is definitely not for guys. I also recommend that people with diabetes read this book because it shows that you can over come anything and follow your dreams!
