A joyful young Black girl dances confidently on the cover, captured mid–high kick like a Rockette, with a line of Rockettes dancing in the background. The bright, soft watercolor artwork celebrates her love of dance and achievement, using cheerful colors to show movement, energy, and happiness. The author’s name appears in green, the title On the Line is shown in red, and the subtitle reads, My Story of Becoming the First African American Rockette.
The scene shows a happy young Jennifer Jones dancing in fun, lively poses, with simple descriptions of her movements. On the next page, she is in a dance class wearing a bright pink tutu, a white leotard, and black ballet shoes. Two other dancers stand behind her in green tutus, holding classic ballet poses.

由第一位黑人无线电城音乐厅的舞者詹妮弗·琼斯创作，这部鼓舞人心的绘本自传非常适合米丝蒂·科普兰、梅·杰米森等开创者的粉丝。

舞蹈一直让她感到自由，觉得自己无所不能。但是当詹妮弗还是个孩子的时候，有些人因为她的肤色，认为她作为舞者没有前途。

在家人的支持下，尤其是她的母亲，她证明了只要相信自己属于这里，一切皆有可能。

配有艺术家小罗伯特·保罗精美的水彩插图，《在线》是一个关于实现梦想的引人入胜的真实故事。
