SUMMARY OF THE MENTOR TEXT:

It is Misty’s first day of ballet class and the dancers learn they will be performing Coppelia. All of the other dancers are excited but Mitsy has never heard of it. Too shy to ask, Mitsy sits down to listen to Miss Bradley tell the story. She immediately falls in love with the story of a doll that comes to life. After listening to the story, the dancers start to practice. 

Miss Braldey notices Mitsy and calls her to the front of the room. She is surprised to hear that Mitsy had never taken a ballet class before. Miss Bradley tells Mitsy she is very talented. Mitsy and another dancer, Cat, start practicing together. They inspire one another and the two girls become better dancers together. Both girls are excited when they are both chosen to play a main part. Mitsy is so excited for the big performance and feels ready. At the end of the show, she is so proud of all she and the other dancers accomplished together.
