PreSchool-Grade 3-DK's signature photography beautifully illustrates this introductory title. Though it covers no new ground, the text is written from the perspective of a young girl who is nervous about beginning ballet school. Young readers embarking on their own lessons may find reassurance in Jamie's story. Just the right amount of information is presented for the intended audience, including the major positions and steps. Most of the spreads feature a segment of a typical class such as warm-up, barre work, leaping, and improvisation. One quibble is that only boys are shown in the section on leaping and jumping. Additionally, while the girls' clothing is described in detail, the boys' attire is not mentioned. Still, balletomanes of either gender will be interested in the experiences of the young dancers depicted here.
