Once Upon a Dance

Once Upon a Dance is a mother-daughter duo. Ballerina Konora is an apprentice with Ballet Idaho and previously danced with Pacific Northwest Ballet's Professional Division and Texture Contemporary Ballet. Growing up, she danced iconic roles such as Sugar Plum Fairy and Cinderella. Konora's mother taught creative movement and ballet for decades and was recognized by her local City Council (2014) for "embodying the spirit of partnership and commitment to children in our community" for her work with young dancers. She's breathed dance from every angle, but after 20 books, she's starting to embrace her author identity.
