The Only Boy in Ballet Class by Denise Gruska

• Plot Summary: Tucker loves ballet-even though some people don't understand his passion for dancing. Taunted by the boys on the football field, tortured by dorky twin sisters, and teased by his Uncle Frank, Tucker doesn't know how to help people see how ballet makes him feel . . . until one day, when an unexpected invitation to join the football game comes, and Tucker Dohr gets the chance to prove just what ballet dancing can do!

• This book is trying to say that anyone can do anything, but mostly ends up saying that boys can’t dance ballet unless it's useful to manly things like football. But it's true that boys that do dance are teased for it and this book definitely makes you empathize with Tucker, who just wants to do what he likes.
