This story, a prequel for a full length novel, is a short story about a little girl and her mother in a world going to hell in a handbasket. Young, small and so very vulnerable, Sunni is also a hopeful little girl who enjoys dressing as a ballerina and dancing. When things go badly and she winds up alone, there will be no more dancing.It's just so very sad and tragic and all too imaginable in a world like the one we live in now.The story is well written and flows beautifully with characters very well fleshed for a short story. It is very easy to sink into the story and relate to the characters despite the brevity of the work. This is a disturbing story though and not at all suitable for the young. Ensure you can be alone afterwards if you have a tendency to be soft hearted.
