An American Girl: Isabelle Dances Into the Spotlight9 a.m. on HBONine-year-old Isabelle is an inspired dancer with a flair for fashion design. She’s thrilled to be studying ballet at a prestigious performing-arts school, but her classmates are so talented — and she can’t help feeling that she’s always in the shadow of her “perfect” older sister, Jade.

    So when her idol, a famous ballerina, encourages her to audition for a professional ballet, Isabelle isn’t sure she can land the role.

    And when a competitive classmate starts pointing out Isabelle’s every mistake, her confidence sinks even further.
