Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Angelfish
Review: I am a dancer and when I looked up "dancer" in the library's book finder, I saw Angelfish. I checked it out and loved it. Also, if no one buys this book soon, then I am definitely going to try to buy it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ------------------------------------------------------------
Review: I found this book to be very interesting. The girl, Robin, plugs together the story of a ballet, w/ her interaction w/ a famous chinese ballet dancer, Mr. Cao, from the Cultural Revolution. He blocks out anything that relates to dance or music because of his past, therefor he comes off to be cold-hearted, when inside he is very kind. I thought it was a very good book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A sensitive, revealing multicultural story
Review: Laurence Yep's Angelfish is one of his best ever: a young Asian-American girl breaks an old man's window and finds herself working for a grumpy, disillusioned loner to pay her debt. Her involvement with ballet interests him and she discovers some real surprises underneath his protective mask of ill humor. A sensitive, revealing multicultural story with many facets.
