YALadybirds series.
Shy outsider Bea pairs up with Ollie, the apparent boyfriend of her nemesis Pearl, to audition for a British dance-competition show. Pearl and her crew step up the bullying, but Bea manages to find confidence and support as she and Ollie progress through the auditions. The stereotypical characters have a lot of room to grow in this comical story with heart.
