Alyssa has to make a huge decision: Visit a very, very sick friend and be thrown out of the Nutcracker, or don't miss her rehearsal and perform in the Nutcracker. Which will she choose? What would you choose? This book teaches you the importance of friendship.

Alyssa is in a dance play. If you miss 3 rehearsals, you're out, but Alyssa has a very ill friend. She already missed 2 of her 3 rehearsals. What should she do?

I really liked this book because Alyssa took time from her rehearsal to see her sick friend. She even lost her spot in the play because of this. This book shows true friendship. I hope whoever chooses this book will enjoy it as much as I did!

Alyssa loves to dance, but when her friend gets sick, she must decide if being in the Nutcracker means that much to her. She decides to help her friend even if it means she can't dance. Pink slippers, Bat Mitzvah blues is a great book. Read it!!!
