Grand-maman est une ballerine
Des pas glissés aux pirouettes, il n’est jamais trop tard pour essayer quelque chose de nouveau!","From sashays to pirouettes, it’s never too late to try something new!
Jemima trouve la danse classique ennuyeuse. Sa grand-maman pense différemment.
Jemima en a assez des pas glissés et considère les pirouettes comme une chose du passé. Mais quand sa grand-maman s’inscrit à ses cours de danse, Jemima ressent enfin des frissons de joie de la tête aux pieds.
À l’approche du spectacle, grand-maman perd tous ses moyens. Jemima doit alors devenir une source d’inspiration pour l’aider à surmonter son trac!
