..."And we'll go dancing!"

This book is a wonderfully written study in the terminolgy of ballet. the illustrations are so helpful, and the information so thoughtfully written. I have purchased many copies for all the little girls in my life, to share and spark interest in ballet. This book was written by someone who loved and appreciated this beautiful art form.

I recomend this book to all of my students!

I am a ballet/ dance teacher. I want to tell you that I highly recomend this book to you and to all of my ballet students. The price is right, and it teaches the basics well! Kim L.

The ABC's of Ballet

While a good book for little ballerinas, i wish that there were a few other basic terms in the book that were not in there for some reason. It also tended to show alot of the steps while "en pointe" & not on "flats." I feel that this will just make the young ones keep going up on their toes & can possibly hurt themselves. Most girls go en pointe between 10-13 yrs of age. This book was meant for beginners, not ones that have been in classes for years. I still find that it does give basic info, which is extremely helpful for the children & their parents.

Good Dance Companion

This was a helpful little book with definitions for ballet steps and terms that is useful when it slips out of your mind in dance class! Also, it has pictures that show you positions of arms, feet, and other poses etc. This would be great for any beginner to ballet, for the basic terms are listed and explained well.

ABC of Ballet

This is a good book for the young dancers and readers. It provides good illustrations that make it easy to visualize and understand the art of ballet. It adds to a childs ballet experience and gives them fun ways of learning and remembering all the different aspects and positions.
