Little Ballerina

Sue Harris

Clumsy ballerina Rosie excels when she's called on to replace a lead dancer in The Nutcracker Suite. The book contains two mounted minibooks plus 7 envelopes with letters and a charm bracelet! Rosie loves to dance, but she's so clumsy! After auditioning for The Nutcracker Suite, Rosie gets the role of a mouse while Stacey wins the part of Clara. Rosie writes to The Sugar Plum Fairy for advice on how to be a better dancer, and is told to have confidence and believe in herself. When Stacey has to drop out of the performance, Rosie's teacher encourages Rosie, who's been practicing very hard, to replace Stacey--to great acclaim! This enchanting novelty book, with a padded cover, contains 2 mounted minibooks, 6 mounted envelopes with letterrs inside, plus a ballet slipper charm bracelet!
