The cover art is not surprising, as this is the story of a ballet dancer. I like the starkness of it, with the silhouette of the ballerina illuminating the cover. As for the story itself, the reader is treated to a clear view of Sparrow's life in a very short amount of time. I want to know more about her, especially her motivations and her dance abilities. Sparrow is a book that I would definitely seek out, either at the library or the bookstore.
