I'm wearing a glittering tutu and a sparkling tiara.
I pirouette. Three times.

And I don't even trip.

My name's Charlotte, but you can call me Lottie. I'm a ballerina.

At least, that's my thing this week.

Charlotte Perkins is seven years old and can't wait to grow up - if only she could decide what she wanted to be!

Luckily, no dream is too big for little Lottie Perkins!
