We Love Ballet! (Pictureback)

Very cute book for the little boy or girl who loves ballet. My daughter is 2 1/2 and just starting ballet class, but this book would be appropriate for any child in preschool or early elementary school. I love the photographs and descriptions of the real ballet terminology.

My 4 yo Granddaughter Loves this book!

I bought this after my 3 year old's first ballet lesson and she just loves this book. We read it every night, although I just give her the gist of the story instead of reading all the words because she likes to talk about what she sees and ask questions on each page, too. She likes to point out each girl that has a pink or blue leotard just like hers, and find which one is Ursala on every page, etc. I think it has helped her understand what her teacher is asking them to do, as well. I can help her position her arms and legs like the girls in the picture until she can do it by herself, whereas the teacher doesn't really walk around and do that in her class. The girls' tutu's on the cover and back of the book are textured, she likes to touch them, and it helps her understand the recital outfits are special.

I gave this to my 3-1/2 year old granddaughter as a gift, along with a ballerina doll, for her first ballet recital. She loves it. The pictures inside are real photos, not drawings. I would recommend this book for any young ballerina in the making.

I bought this for my daughter's fourth birthday which happened to be of the ballerina theme. I like the book because the pictures are real photographed pictures, and it holds the child's interest in seeing a peer talk about her experiences going to and coming from ballet class, preparing for a recital, etc. It also introduces the child to some basic ballet steps through the art of photography. This is a nice addition to anyone wanting some books about ballet for their child. For the younger audience (ages 2-4)I Wear My Tutu Everywhere! (Reading Railroad Books)is also a great find!

My three year old is reluctant to do anything new, and between her first and second ballet class, she forgot how much she'd enjoyed the first class. I broke out this book the morning of class as she was saying she didn't want to go and it changed her mind completely. The pictures and brief descriptions reminded her of the things she'd loved. Now the book comes out at least once a day.

Perfect book for your ballerina

This is my almost 2 year old daughter's FAVORITE book! She LOVES ballet and this one holds her interest. Very good book for little ones. Great one to spark your own conversations....What are they doing?..etc. Also has some ballet terms.

Great book sums up ballet for my toddler well.
