Quake survivor ballets her way to school
Li Yue tied her long black hair into a ponytail and put on her pink-frame glasses yesterday morning just like she used to before leaving for school till May 12.
"I miss school life so much (but I think) the new school in Beijing will make me feel at home," she said. She finished a seven-month training at China Rehabilitation Research Center before attending classes in Beijing No 4 High School from yesterday.
Li was a promising ballet student in Qushan Primary School in Beichuan, Sichuan province. But she lost her left leg to the May 12 earthquake, which threatened to bring her dancing career to a premature end.
