Princess Tu Tu Volume 1

Ahiru is a clumsy young duck with a dream: to dance like a ballerina and catch the eye of a boy she admires. When a enchanted pendant grants that wish, she is transformed into a poised and luminous dancer known as Princess Tutu. Her new elegance opens doors to a world of theatre, rivalry and tender feelings, but the magic carries strange obligations of its own. Ahiru soon finds that her hopes and her true self are not so easily separated.
