Maria Tallchief was the very first Native American ballet star. She began her career by dancing at county fairs. Not only was she the first Native American ballet dancer, she was also the United States' first prima ballerina (that means she was very special). This is the story of a famous and inspiring woman. Young students will be delighted to meet her. From the "Who Was?" series of children's books.
