Beautiful New Biography: Alicia Alonso

Written by

Alicia Alonso: Prima Ballerina is a great new addition to your or your school's biography collection. Author Carmen T. Bernier-Grand uniquely uses poetry form (free verse) to tell the story of Alonso's life in Cuba and in the United States. It tells her life story becoming a prima ballerina, moving to the United States, her struggle with her eyesight, and her move back to Cuba to found her own dance company and school.

I am a fan of Raúl Colón's illustrations. You could even do a study of him as an illustrator, also looking at his books Jose! Born to Dance: The Story of Jose Limon and My Mama Had a Dancing Heart.
