Answer to Fairday's Riddle: Right On Pointe!

Excellent guessing, Riddlers! This week we're dancing out of the box. Tune in on Monday for Lizzy's book review and find out how the answer ties into the story. See you all around the book block. ~ F

Fouetté sauté center stage—pirouette, plié, promenade. Structure in movement, pas with grace. Léotard lines entrelacé. Tchaikovsky feathered sweet Odette. Balanchine spun Apollo's set. Piqué grande! Feast your eyes when dancing spirits do arise. 

What am I referring to? Answer: Ballet!
