Dear Ballerina
A dream comes true for a girl who loves tutus, pointe shoes, and dancing on tiptoe!
The girl in this story loves to stretch, to pose, to point her toes, to swirl and twirl and leap! She practices new steps every day. All her efforts are rewarded when one special day, she gets to dance in a performance with her favorite ballerina.
"Dear Ballerina," the girl writes, "I dream of being a dancer just like you."
The pictures in the book take the reader behind the scenes of the ballet to a practice room, a costume room, and the wings of the stage. At last, the curtain goes up, and the girl and her idol dance. Their tutus swirl together!
"Dancing makes me happy!" the little ballerina says.
A touching story about dance, passion, effort, and intergenerational mentorship.
