Personal Reflection: I personally enjoyed reading this book because I remember reading this book as a child and connecting with the character as in she’s not afraid to try something she’s passionate about and when she does, she is dedicated to it and it ultimately helps her become more motivated and more focused in her own daily life. I was also able to reconnect with this story now as a college student and see the themes in a whole new light.

I first heard of Angelina Ballerina by Katharine Holabird through the animated series. We were in Bend, Oregon on a trip. Harriet was getting over a stomach bug and I was coming down with one. We were holed up in our hotel room eating take out and watching kids television. Harriet was just learning to walk at the time. I don't know if her first exposure to Angelina Ballerina made any lasting impression or not.
